Abstract :
The paper deals with the partial automation of cars for safety purposes. We have tried to automate the car to prevent the danger (obstacles around the car) in the best possible way by incorporating intelligence to it with the help of microcontrollers and interfacing them with the basic structures of the braking, steering and the acceleration systems of the car. The actions required are taken only if the driver is not able to steer the car out of danger even after he is alerted. We have given preference to a particular direction with respect to other directions in the most practical way and in a particular sequence so that only one system (i.e. braking, steering and the acceleration) works at a given instant of time. The proposed system can be implanted in a manually driven car at a very low cost
