EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM

Abstract

The braking system of a car is undoubtedly one of its more important feature. The aim of this work is to create a better braking system automatically. The purpose is to replace existing hydraulic systems with an electro mechanical alternative to improve performance, controllability and to provide more environmentally and friendly solution. Research indicated that a system based on a magnetic phenomenon named eddy – currents could produce the desired result. The electro magnetic braking system consists of a solenoid. It is fixed with the wheel disc like disk brake. At the front of the vehicle an IR sensor is connected. If there is any obstacle at the front side, the sensor sends signal to the control circuit. Immediately the control module gives signal to the Electromagnetic braking system. When the coil of the solenoid is energized, the iron core is rubbed with the disc and thus the wheel will be stopped immediately.
