  1. Simple Awareness of Vehicles and Assorted Night Traffic(SAVANT) Senior Design Project 2012 Team Xia Ben Bromberg, Rodrigo Bismonte, Patrick Estabrook

  2. Problem Statement • We wish to reduce injury and death to pedestrians and bikers caused by lack of visibility.

  3. System Overview • Users of the road wear GPS devices transmitting their location • Motor vehicles have receivers and transmitters • Displays the location of received GPS information on the windshield (Heads Up Display) SimpleAwarenessofVehicles andAssortedNightTraffic

  4. GPS Helical GPS Helical GPS Xbee RF Transciever Microcontroller Microcontroller BeagleBoard on-board Computer Xbee RF Transmitter Xbee RF Transmitter Display System Block Diagram The RF “Æther” Pedestrian/Cyclist System Car System

  5. Pedestrian/Cyclist Module (PCM) MDR Prototype

  6. Pedestrian/Cyclist Module (PCM) CDR Prototype Insert updated image of PCM prototype here

  7. Helical GPS Module – 50 Channel D2523T

  8. ATMega328 Microcontroller

  9. XBee Module

  10. Xbee Mesh addressing scheme

  11. Automobile Module (AMM) – MDR Prototype

  12. Automobile Module (AMM) – CDR Prototype

  13. BeagleBoard

  14. Demonstration! Improvements! • One more PCM (Pedestrian-Cyclist Module) unit • Installation of helical GPS units in the PCM • AMM (Automobile Module) unit receiving its coordinates using its GPS receiver • AMM parsing its GPS location • PCM pre-parsing its GPS location before broadcasting

  15. Budget • Cost Breakdown

  16. FPR Goals • I. Pedestrian-Cyclist Module (PCM) final prototype • GPS, XBee, ATTiny • II. Automobile Module (AMM) final prototype • GPS, XBee, BeagleBoard • On-windshield user display • III. Chassis and PCB • Minimization of PCM footprint • Power management • PCM mobility issues resolved • IV. Testing/Experimentation

  17. FPR Deliverables • Two working PCM units • Minimized and wearable • AMM unit installed and working in a car (or an approximation of a car) • User interface • Projector/display on car windshield • Video of the test • Demonstration of multiple (two real with several simulated) PCM units joining/leaving the dynamic network • Accuracy statistics
