Abstract: This paper represents an automated system for air pollution detection and control in vehicles. We see that the emission from motor vehicle is one of the main sources of air pollution and this is due to the improper maintenance or checkup of the vehicle. Therefore I proposed a system in which I’ll control the air pollution with the help of detection from the motor vehicle. Detection and control is the main area on which we have to work if we really want to control air pollution. In my system there is a smoke sensor which is placed at the vehicle’s silencer from where the smoke is flown or released in the atmosphere. Smoke sensor is used to measure the percentage of carbon pollutants present in the smoke which is the cause of the air pollution. The output of the smoke sensor comes in the form of analog voltage so there is need of ADC to convert in to form of digital voltage. The output of the smoke sensor is checked by the microcontroller. In this system I am using ATMEGA 8 microcontroller. As the vehicle attains the maximum threshold pollution level, the system will be trigged and engine goes to the off state.
