| Summary: | This paper evaluates a conceptualization of Vehicle Blind Spot Monitoring System (VBMS), which performs a more effective approach in eliminating blind spot of the driver. The newly developed smart blind spot monitoring system simply focusing on an advancement of the preceding work, along with compromising user compatibility and cost-effectiveness. Compact design, reliable and low-cost that contributes to a highly affordable safety feature are the flagship of this new system. Components selection is the main role in constructing an inexpensive blind spot detection system in the present work. Thus, Arduino UNO R3 model and HC-SR04
ultrasonic sensors were employed for the VBMS system due
to reasonable market price. Plus, the ultrasonic sensor has demonstrated a remarkable performance in the past blind spot
detection system application. Concerning easy installation as
well as maintenance on any vehicle, the VBMS is designed as
a compact device which assembles the main control unit and
sensory partsin a single body to be located at the bottom of the
side mirror. Meanwhile, the hazard-warning signal is separately located at the passenger compartment for easily visible by the driver. The angle and sensing range of sensors are both adjustable but vital as their projections define the blind spot limit accurately by characterizing low to a high potential hazard. At the end of this work, a complete VBMS functional prototype of has been establish which effective for real traffic on-road experimentation, with various conditions specified (static, various speed, and overtaken). From the data collected, all targets of the present work have been attained
regarding monitoring phenomenon shown by the new-built
system. Both pros and cons of VBMS are discussed for further
improvement ideas on product development |
