  • Abstract
    This work presents an integrated monitoring system to avoid accidents or collisions between vehicles from both (front and back) sides. It can be used to save human lives from a number of road accidents. To demonstrate such a low cost system, a distance sensors framework, microcontroller, remotely controlled unit using radio frequency, and an alarm unit are utilized. A navigation approach of the robot is also described based on the range sensors. To verify the presented strategy, the experimental test has been carried out in a real environment by moving robot between different vehicles and objects.
