Abstract

To detect and track the items is one of the critical issues in a surveillance system, using which it can monitor important tasks and stop suspicious actions. During surveying, the data is captured, interpreted and analyzed for further actions. This surveying aids autonomous systems to implement real-time applications. There is huge demand for intelligent autonomous systems that has facilitated a variety of applications in transportation, manufacturing industry, etc. It is highly challenging to design and implement autonomous systems that detect obstacles effectively. There are very few works that have been proposed which focus on effective obstacle detection and speed control of a car during rain. The objective of this paper is to design and implement an autonomous electric car that is capable of detecting obstacles, controlling the speed of the car, reducing the temperature of the car cabin during parking and detecting charging points automatically. Along with these implementations, the system is made to work using electricity, thereby reducing pollution, in turn contributing to a reduction in global warming.
