abstract
The aim of this project is to Automate unmanned railway gate using mechatronics. PROJECT DEFINATION: The objective of this project is to manage the control system of railway gate using the microcontroller.
INTRODUCTION
The objective of this project is to manage the control system of railway gate using the microcontroller. When train arrives at the sensing point alarm is triggered at the railway crossing point so that the people get intimation that gate is going to be closed.
AT89C51 Microcontroller: The Micro controller (AT89C51) is a low power; high performance CMOS 8-bit micro controller with 4K bytes of Flash programmable and erasable read only memory (PEROM).
Step Motor Advantages: Step motors convert electrical energy into precise mechanical motion. These motors rotate a specific incremental distance per each step. In motor terms, repeatability is the ability to return to a previously held position. A step motor can achieve the same target position, revolution after revolution.
