Abstract :
The main purpose of this project is to produce a safety system especially for fatigue and sleepy car driver so as to prevent from accidents. These systems encompassed the approach of hand pressure applied on the steering wheel. The steering will be installed with pressure sensors. At the same time these sensors can be used to measure gripping force while driving by pressing the calibration button placed on the steering. When the driver gets fatigue or sleepy during driving the seat will vibrate and both thigh of driver will feel the vibration and also the buzzer will activate synchronously. Wireless communication used to avoid the system looking fibred between steering wheel and motor vibrator inside the seat driver.
