Automobile Speed Violation Detection System using RFID and GSM Technologies

The intention to work on the topic of this nature is emanated from the interest to explore alternative technological solution to achieve effective speed control. The objective of the study is to design and develop a new system that can effectively detect speed violations on the road and supports the driver to obey traffic rules while driving by maintaining the speed according to the speed limit prescribed. Based on the detailed review of the literature and also based on the comparison among the prevailing approaches in addressing the core issues, the study has introduced an efficient system with an enhanced scope. The proposed system consists of PIC (18F45K22) microcontroller, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM). The system is having two RFID readers along with a passive tag that is attached to the vehicle and GSM is utilized to notify the vehicle's owner and Police through Short Message Service (SMS). Furthermore, a picture of a vehicle is taken via the Camera and a fine is charged when the speed limit is exceeded. The system offers low cost, reliable, efficient results and real time notification. The system was designed and simulated using Proteus v7.10 and the system was operating successfully and performed accurately.
