Vehicle Speed Control Using Zigbee and GPS

With the current population and growing number of vehicles on road, speed control has become an important requirement due to the increased number of accidents reported in our day-to-day life. Measures like traffic management, improving quality of road infrastructure and safer vehicles can prevent the road accidents. Though there are many technologies available for speed management of a vehicle, practical implementation of each is to some extent is not up to satisfactory level. This paper discusses a speed monitoring and control system that can provide safer environment in critical zones like schools, colleges etc. The proposed method uses Zigbee and GPS for the speed control and which is also cost effective and can be fixed easily on vehicles.
