Design of a Hazardous Slope Detection Algorithm for Vehicles Using Arduino
This study presents the development of an algorithm that detects potential front bumper collisions caused by road inclinations and provides early warnings to drivers. The system uses a Time-of-Flight (ToF) infrared distance sensor and an obstacle detection sensor, both implemented on an Arduino-based platform. By continuously monitoring the road ahead, the algorithm measures and analyzes the slope angle to identify potential hazards. This solution offers a cost-effective and efficient alternative to traditional warning systems, notifying drivers in advance of dangerous road conditions and helping to prevent vehicle damage caused by sudden changes in road gradient.
