GPS Based Highway Monitoring and Control

This project uses the PIC Microcontroller 16F877 to control and monitor the parameters of vehicles while traveling in highways. The main aim of this project is to control the speed of the bus on encountering of some important zones like Schools, Hospitals and Level Crossing etc. The zones are detected using a transmitter and receiver. The transmitter will be placed on the Zone and the receiver in the vehicles. On encountering Particular zone the receiver got signaled and the controller begins to reduce the speed of the vehicle. On leaving that zone the controller automatically increases the speed of the vehicle.

This project also has a Map to show the passengers, at what station the vehicle started and to indicate the encountered stations on that route. This is done with the help of various LEDs fixed on the map. It has a temperature sensor connected to a vehicle and has a display board to monitor the outside temperature. It also indicates the direction of the vehicle presently moving i.e., towards North or East or West or South.
