Abstract

The Blind Spot Detectors and Informer project aims to mitigate the rising global road accident toll, particularly involving heavy vehicles, responsible for 1.3 million annual fatalities according to WHO statistics. To enhance road safety, the project reviews prior studies, emphasizing the identification of three critical ranges for road users near heavy vehicles: safe, caution, and danger ranges. Following the study, key components crucial to the project's success are determined, recognizing their impact on the circuit's functionality. The methodology outlines the planned approach for achieving project objectives, ensuring each completed task contributes valuable insights for future endeavors. Critical to the project's success is a comprehensive testing phase. Solar stability tests assess energy production factors, such as speed and weather, crucial for the solar-powered system. The ultrasonic sensor undergoes distance tests, simulating various conditions to determine its detection capabilities at maximum and minimum distances. The entire circuit, from solar input to output on LCD, LED, and buzzer, undergoes functionality tests. Results and data from these tests are recorded and evaluated, guiding improvements and preventing issues in the integration of all components into a unified system.The project emphasizes utilizing knowledge, analysis, and experiences gained to generate impactful results for the community. By addressing the negligence-related blind spot accidents, the project aims to contribute significantly to the broader objective of reducing global road accidents and fostering a safer road environment
