ALCOHOL SENSING WITH ENGINE LOCKING SYSTEM(IoT)
ABSTRACT:
The aim of our project is to makes human driving safe and to overcome
the accident rate due to the drunk and drive. Driving under the influence of
alcohol has affected and killed countless people’s lives. due drink driver put his
self in risk along with other peoples. So here proposing an innovative and initial
system to reduce the accidents due to the drunk and drive. According to the
proposing system the car is controlled automatically, the driver can’t drive a car
after drinking alcohol. We are making use of alcohol detection sensor,
microcontroller, LED. The system is trying to make safe life setting inside the
vehicle and surrounding people
1. INTRODUCTION
“Drinking is not only injurious to drunken driver it also affect the surrounding
area and people.”
We usually come across drink and driving cases where drunk drivers crash
their cars under the influence of alcohol causing damage to property and life. So
here we propose an innovative system to eliminate such cases. Our proposed
system would be constantly monitoring the driver's breath by placing it on the
drive wheel or somewhere the driver’s breath can be constantly monitored by
it. So if a driver is drunk and tries to drive the system detects alcohol presence
in his/her breathe and locks the engine so that the vehicle fails to start.
In another case, if the driver is not drunk while he starts the vehicle and
engine is started but he/she drinks while driving the sensor still detects alcohol
in his breath and slowly stops the engine so that the car would not accelerate
any further and driver can steer it to roadside. In this system, we use an AVR
family microcontroller interfaced with an alcohol sensor along with an LCD
screen and a dc motor to demonstrate the concept. So here the alcohol sensor
is used to monitor the user's breath and constantly sends signals to the
microcontroller.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
In the past, there were some technologies which protects the automobile
from drunken driver. Those technologies are works on the concept of GSM and
GPS. In this system, the microcontroller was interconnected with the car alarm
system
In [2] this, they used PIC 16876A microcontroller, alcohol sensor, alarm
System, LCD. The ignition system turns off when the sensor senses the alcohol.
IR [3] LED894 is used, it produces high-intensity IR rays that absorb high
content of alcohol from air, so this system will work only when the driver drunk
high concentration alcohol.
In [4], IR sensor was used to detect obstacle which comes in front of this
sensor(vehicle), and when an obstacle is detected vehicle is stopped or notified
with an alarm. It was also monitoring the toxic gases such as CO2, LPG, Alcohol
from inside area of the vehicle.
In [5], It describes how breath alcohol concentration exhaled by the driver
is detected through the alcohol sensor MQ303A.
3. HARDWARE COMPONENTS TO BE USED
I. LED DISPLAY
These displays are small, only about 1" LENGTH, but very readable due to the
high contrast of an OLED display.
Fig.1 LED display
This display is made of 128x64 individual white OLED pixels, each one is
turned on or off by the controller chip. Because the display makes its own light,
no backlight is required. This reduces the power required to run the LED and is
why the display has such high contrast. We really like this miniature display for
its crispness. This breakout can be used with either an SPI or I2C interface -
selectable by soldering two jumpers on the back. The design is completely 5V-
ready, with an onboard regulator and built-in boost converter. It's easier than
ever to connect directly to your 3V or 5V microcontroller without needing any
kind of level shifter.
II. Regulator:
A voltage regulator is used to produce a constant linear output voltage. It’s
generally used with AC to DC power supply. And also it can be used as well as a
DC to DC voltage converter.
Fig. 3 Regulator
To regulating low voltage, the most used device is one single IC. 7805, 7812,
7905, etc. 78xx series are design for positive and 79xx series are for Negative
voltage regulator. 7805 is a three-terminal +5v voltage regulator IC from 78XX
chips family. See 7805 pinout below. LM78XX series are from National
Semiconductor. They are linear positive voltage regulator IC; used to produce a
fixed linear stable output voltage.
III. DC MOTOR:
Fig. 5 MOTOR
DC or direct current motor works on the principal when a current-carrying
conductor is placed in a magnetic field; it experiences a torque and has a
tendency to move. This is known as motoring action. If the direction of current
in the wire is reversed, the direction of rotation also reverses. When the
magnetic field and electric field interact they produce a mechanical force and
based on that the working principle of the DC motor is established. In our
project, the DC motor is using as an engine starter that would be connected to
the crank of the engine.
IV. BUZZER/ALARM
Fig. 6 Buzzer / Alarm
Buzzer is the convenient sound generator utilized as a part of electronic
circuits to give sound sign. It is broadly utilized as caution generator in electronic
gadgets. It is accessible in different sorts and sizes to suit the prerequisites. A
Piezo bell has a Piezo circle and an oscillator inside. At the point when the ringer
is controlled, the oscillator creates a recurrence around 2-4 kHz and the Piezo
component vibrates as needs be to deliver the sound. A conventional Piezo bell
works between 3 – 12 volts DC.
V. MQ-03 ALCOHOL SENSOR
This alcohol sensor is appropriate for distinguishing liquor fixation on your
breath, much the same as your normal breath analyzer.
Fig. 7 Alcohol sensor
It has a high affectability and quick reaction time. The sensor gives a
simple resistive yield in view of liquor fixation. The drive circuit is extremely
straightforward; all it needs is one resistor. A basic interface could be a 0-3.3V
ADC.
VI. Rectifier:
fig. 5 Rectifier
A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC),
which periodically reverses direction, to direct current (DC), which flows in only
one direction. The process is known as rectification, since it "straightens" the
direction of current
4. ALGORITHM STRATEGIES TO BE USED FOR SYSTEM :
1. Starting vehicle by the driver. Checks the speed of the car.
2. If it is zero then start sensing by various sensor ¬ify detection. In this case,
alcohol is mainly checked if it detected then stop ignition.
3. If speed is greater than 2 kmph then again sensing is started. Detection of
various parameter will be sensed by sensor & will be notified.
4. At the same time if alcohol is detected then fuel supply will be blocked.
5. The vehicle will be stopped.

APPLICATIONS
1. This system can be implemented in vehicles to avoid accidents due
to drunken driving.
2. It can also be used by various organizations or authorities to
monitor its employees and keep a check on them.
