" REAL-TIME GSM-INTEGRATED SMART BRIDGE

Abstract

In the present innovation, we attempted a proposanal control technique for implementing a real-time GSM-integrated automatic height-adjusting bridge system to enhance safety and avoid accidents during heavy rainfalls and floods. The system utilizes Ultrasonic sensor, Arduino UNO microcontroller, linear actuator, LCD, LED indicators, GSM modem, etc. The ultrasonic sensor provides water level data in the reservoir along with bridge position feedback data from the linear actuator. The Arduino UNO microcontroller processes all these data and provides such a driving pulse to the linear actuator driver so that the long actuator will run with the bridge as far as proposanal feedback data becomes equal to reference water level data. So, the system continuously tracks the level of the water accordingly and adjusts the height of the bridge. GSM modem receives the present status of water levels and position of the bridge to the user. Besides that, LCD and LED indicators provide system status, and the user may get current status data at any time simply by sending text as GET DATA to GSM. Furthermore, the system provides an alert message to the user once the water level in the reservoir exceeds more than 90% (0.5V) and automatically both entry gates are closed. Finally, the proposed system prototype has been validated and is effective in functioning even with a change in water level. Thereby reducing risks and improving the resilience and safety of infrastructure in flood-prone areas.
