Abstract
This project is designed to demonstrate the technology used in metro train movement which are used in most of the developed countries. This train is equipped with Arduino microcontroller that enables the automatic turning of the train from one station to another. This proposed system is an autonomous train and it eliminates the need of any driver. Thus any human error is ruled out. In this project Arduino Atmega328 microcontroller has been used as CPU. Whenever the train arrives the station it stops automatically, as sensed by an IR Sensor. Then the door is opened automatically so that the passengers can go inside the train. The door then closes after a prescribed time set in the controller by the program. It is also equipped with passenger counting section, which counts the number of passengers entering the train. The door closes when it reaches maximum occupancy level irrespective of time allotted for the door to remain open. The passenger counts are displayed on the LCD Display interface to the microcontroller. The movement of the train is controlled by the motor driver IC interfaced to the microcontroller. The train incorporates a buzzer to alter the passengers closing the door and also warn then before starting. As the train reaches the destination the process repeats thus achieving the desired operation.
