DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN ALCOHOL DETECTION SYSTEM FOR DRIVER

Abstract

Alcohol Detection Driver System' is built and put into use to track drivers' blood alcohol content in real time, with the goal of improving road safety and preventing drunk driving in Rwanda's public transportation system. This system, which was created especially for the particular requirements of Rwanda's public transportation vehicles, combines sensors technology with clever control mechanisms to identify the presence of alcohol in a driver's breath. When the system detects alcohol concentrations above a set threshold, it sets off a sequence of safety measures, which may include warning the driver and maybe turning off the ignition to keep the car from running. The heart of the device is a highly sensitive alcohol sensor that is positioned carefully to guarantee reliable and consistent readings, especially when using public transportation. The system analyzes the sensor data in conjunction with a microcontroller unit to make judgments instantly depending on the amount of alcohol detected. The implementation makes sure that drivers are notified of their status in a clear and timely manner by including user-friendly interfaces for alarm notifications and system feedback. The danger of alcohol-related accidents within Rwanda's public transportation system can be greatly decreased by using this alcohol detection system, which will help make the country's roads safer and potentially save lives. Because of its design, which places a high priority on dependability, usability, and quick reaction, the system is a workable option for actual usage in the nation's transportation sector. In addition, the incorporation of this system into public transportation vehicles is a proactive measure to encourage safe driving practices and improve public safety throughout Rwanda.
