Abstract: Vehicles have become an integral part of everyone's life. Situations and circumstances demand the usage of vehicles in this fast paced urban life. As a coin has two sides, this has its own effects, one of the main side effects being air pollution. Every vehicle will have emission but the problem occurs when it is beyond the standardized values. The primary reason for this breach of emission level being the incomplete combustion of fuel supplied to engine, which is due to the improper maintenance of vehicles. This emission from vehicles cannot be completely avoided but, it definitely can be controlled.
Now a day accidents is a common feature of deaths. The common feature of accidents will be rash driving, signal jumping, drunk and driving, due to minor drivers etc. Rash driving and signal jumping is a nature of driver which causes panic in the traffic and finally leads to accidents. These are critical things to control so here we coming up with a concept to reduce rash driving.
As a solution to the above problems we aim to build an automated control system for emission level and rash driving detection in vehicles. Smoke detector is used to detect the carbon percentage in smoke released by vehicles due to combustion of fuel in it. Smoke detector is fixed at the end of exhaust of vehicle from where smoke is released into the environment. The smoke detector detects carbon and gives it to microcontroller to check the maximum percentage of carbon content in smoke released by vehicles. So the controller checks the percentage of carbon and if it is more than the threshold level of carbon the system module sends SMS about this to the nearby pollution control office through GSM.
Similarly, If driver is rash driving then it is done like applying and releasing of accelerator and brake frequently then it is taken as one point reduction and is intimated to control office by sending message through GSM, and it also sends location of vehicle through GPS system.
