Speed Detector Using Arduino Uno

Speed Detector using Arduino Uno and IR sensor is designed to measure the speed of moving object .It work my calculating time taken by an object to travel a known distance between two infrared module.

Main componant:

1. Arduino Uno(Microcontroller to control the sytem)
2. LCD I2c model( To display the speed)
3. 2 IR sensor( To detect the object movement)
4. Breadboard( to making circuit connection)
5. Jumper wire( for wiring)

CONNECTION OF IR SENSOR TO ARDUINO UNO

1. First IR sensor
2. VCC - 5v
3. GND - GND
4. OUT - 2
5. Second IR sensor
6. VCC -5V
7. GND - GND
8. OUT - 3

CONNECTION OF LCD TO ARDUINO UNO

1. GND- GND
2. VCC- 5V
3. SDA -A4
4. SCL - A5

working

1. Intial Setup
2. Two IR sensor are placed at 10cm distance from each other
3. Object Detection
4. When object pass in front of first sensor then sensor send singnal to the Arduino uno
5. Then Arduino Uno starts the timer
6. When Object Reaches the second IR sensor then Arduino Uno stop the timer.
7. Time calculation
8. Time difference= Timesensor2 - Timesensor1
9. speed calculation
10. Formula= Speed =Distance /Time
11. Output Display
12. Display on LCD

CONCLUSION

speed detector using Arduino Uno and IR sensor is simpe and effective sytem for measuring the speed of object.By calculating to time taken to travel a know distance the system provide accurate sped resulte in real time.

Application

1. Vehicle speed monitoring

Used to measure the speed of vehicle on road and parking areas.

2.Industrial Automation
