Mobile Railway Platform over Railway Track

The current railway systems in India are not automated and are fully man-made. In railway stations generally we use bridges. It is very difficult for the elderly persons or handicapped persons to use the bridge. This project finds a good solution. Mainly the motion of a train is checked by sensor, this is used for automatically close/open the mobile platform. We made this device with the help of IR Sensors and Microcontroller. Normally the mobile platform connects the two platforms through which the passenger can walk on the platform to reach on the next platform.The main aim of this project is to construct a movable railway platform above the tracks with same platform height. This helps the passengers to easily move from one platform to another platform. The system also uses PIR sensor and LDR sensor for presence of human being detection, day or night light detection and controls the devices like lights and fans.
