Description

A novel method for secure transportation of
railway systems has been proposed in this project. In
existing methods, most of the methods are manual resulting
in a lot of human errors. This project proposes a system
which can be controlled automatically without any outside
help. This project has a model concerning two train
sections and a gate section. The railway sections are used to
show the movement of trains and a gate section is used to
show the happenings in the railway crossings. The scope of
this project is to monitor the train sections to prevent
collisions between two trains or between humans and trains
and to avoid accidents in the railway crossings. Also an
additional approach towards effective power utilization has
been discussed. Five topics are discussed in this project : 1)
Detection of obstacles in front of the train;2) Detection of
cracks and movements in the tracks;3) Detection of human
presence inside the train and controlling the electrical
devices accordingly 4) Updating the location of train and
sharing it with other trains automatically 5) Controlling the
gate section during railway crossing. This project can be
used to avoid accidents in the railway tracks.
