【 摘 要 】

Most of the road mishaps occurred due to the mistakes of driver. The lack of physical fitness is one of the reasons for these kinds of accidents. Alcohol consumption and sleeping during driving also leads to accidents. The biological signals such as ECG, EEG and Heart Rate are considered to be good indicators to check physical fitness. To avoid the road mishaps, a micro-controller based system to sense the above mentioned parameters and to make a decision based on the sensed data is proposed in this paper. It consist of various sensors to detect biological signals, sleeping attitude and presence of alcohol in the blood of the driver. The micro-controller is programmed to make decision based on the sensed data. If the physical fitness of the driver is tested and verified successfully, can drive the vehicle. If not, the system automatically locks the engine and a message will be delivered to the control centre via wireless technology. The design and real time simulation of the proposed system is carried out in Proteus® and the micro controller programming is done in mikroC®.
