Networked Advanced Vehicle Anti-Tamper & Alert System 2011- Vermont Technical College Electro-Mechanical Senior Project Threat Verification- NAVATATim Quinn, Jacques Dupuis, Henry Mossell
Problem Statement • Deployed Vehicles Unattended • ARA designed a vibration sensing anti-tamper system • Threats tamper while unattended • Wide open spaces and wind gust • Not immune to vibrations due to wind • False alarms • Determine an actual threat from wind gusts
Solution Statement • To design a system that uses sensors to differentiate between wind and a real threat to the vehicle, that can be used in harsh environments, robust enough to withstand constant vibration and impact, and easy to maintain.

Areas of Responsibility • Tim Quinn • ARA POC • Passive Infrared Sensor Research, design, and testing • Jacques Dupuis • Secretary • Anemometer, Pitot tubes Research, design, and testing • Henry Mossell • Project Manager • Pressure Sensor, and Ultrasonic Proximity Sensor Research, design, and testing Areas of responsibility are subject to change as the program progresses • Other duties may be assigned as required
Sensor Testing Platform Tim Quinn Passive Infrared Henry Mossell Pressure Ultrasonic Jacques Dupuis Anemometer Pitot Tube • After Testing each sensor • Create a matrix table comparing the 4 sensors results • Determine sensor of best fit for our application
Passive Infrared Sensors • PIR sensors are detecting a change in radiation in its field of view • Sensor is split into two half and the IR levels are compared between the 2 halves. • If one side detects a higher IR radiation than the other side the output is pulled up or down • The use of a lens give a wider field of view as will a greater comparator sensitivity
Budget • Unlimited
