Abstract :
As Automotive industry is growing very fast and estimation of fuel level and its indication is very much required to make aware the vehicle owner about the distance it can cover. Thus the requirement of fuel level management system and associated algorithms becomes more prominent. The system have to be robust, effective and durable. So as to provide the exact calibrated value to the owner, and will be more effective if it can give you the idea of estimation of distance it can travel at different velocities. The embedded system and the associated algorithms with complete hardware helps in achieving this. Involvement of M2M (Machine to machine) communication helps in providing the information to the user within his/her reach ( i.e. data can be transported to user smart phone). This paper aims at the system which can pinpoint the issues like calibrating fuel level in bumpy surfaces, hilly areas (fuel sloshing problem); porting the fuel level information to the user´s phone. To achieve the set goal a system is developed using a system comprising microcontroller, sensor and display unit.
