| TITLE | Automatic Railway Crossing Gate Controller |
|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | Railway level crossings are critical points where road and rail traffic intersect, and they are often prone to accidents due to human error, negligence, or delayed gate operations. To address these safety concerns, this project proposes the design and implementation of an Automatic Railway Crossing Gate Controller that operates without human intervention. The system uses sensors placed on either side of the railway track to detect the arrival and departure of a train. When a train approaches the crossing, the sensors trigger a control unit that automatically closes the gate and activates warning signals to alert road users. Once the train has safely passed, the gate is reopened automatically, allowing normal road traffic flow. The proposed system employs a microcontroller-based control mechanism along with IR sensors, motor drivers, and visual/audio indicators to ensure reliable and timely gate operation. By automating the crossing gate, the system significantly reduces the risk of accidents, minimizes traffic congestion, and improves overall operational efficiency. This project demonstrates a cost-effective, reliable, and scalable solution that can be implemented at both manned and unmanned railway crossings to enhance public safety and reduce dependence on manual control. |
