  1. DETACHABLE POTHOLE DETECTION AND WARNING SYSTEM Kwok Yu Mak Valentin Siderskyi Lamia Iftekhar

  2. Existing work • Obstacle detection • Mechanical • Image processing • Mostly protruded obstacles • Auntonomous avoidance

  3. Current needs • Pothole detection • for baby strollers, wheelchairs , grocery carts etc. • Warning system only - not autonomous control - wheelchair users prefer manual control - too risky for baby strollers

  4. Project Objective • To build a handy, detachable, user-friendly device that can be mounted on a variety of human-maneuvered slow-speed vehicles. Focus on : baby strollers

  5. Detection method • Attempt • Mechanical extension: bulky , already done • Laser sensors : too sensitive , costlier • Chosen - PING)))™ Ultrasonic Distance Sensor (#28015)

  6. Warning Method • Vibration Motor • Can be turned off if desired • LEDs • Two for obstacles • Two for battery levels • On/off • Battery meter • Using voltage divider

  7. Overall structure • System A attached to front of vehicle • System B worn on wrist

  8. Mechanical DesignSystem A
