Abstract

This research aims to design a new concept of the blind spot detection system, which carries a similar goal as another developed system to eliminate the blind spot of the driver. The new smart system developed simply targeted to improve the previous concepts to compromise user compatibility as well as cost-effectiveness. The criteria of the new system are compact, reliable and low-cost so that the system affordable for the car owners. In order to produce a low-cost blind spot detection system, the selection of components used in the system play an important role in the present work. The Arduino UNO and HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor have been chosen for the new system as both components are affordable in price. Besides that, the ultrasonic sensor has been proven as effective in the previous blind spot detection system project. To make sure the device is compatible to any vehicle, the design is made up compact which combines the control unit and two sensors in the main body is mounted to the side mirror, while the warning signal is separated in the second body to be placed in the passenger compartment. The angle of two sensors is very crucial as they carry the responsibility to monitor the blind spot correctly. At the end of this project, a prototype of the new system has been produced to be tested in the real situation. There are several tests set up with the different condition to observe the ability of the device. Based on the result collected, the criteria of the new-built system have answered the objectives of present work. The strength and weakness the present system were also discussed to for further improve the developed product.
