  • Safety device for cabs without internet – May 2018
    Students of 8S ME, Jaya Krishna Teja, Sarika Nikhil and Vijayendra, under the able guidance of Dr. Rakesh. S.G., Associate Dean and Head, ASEB and Mr. Nandivardhan, Assistant Professor, Department of Electronics and Communication, have developed a tamper-proof safety device, which can be integrated with the central-locking system of cars and can work without the internet. This device is a simple add-on to the built in central locking system in cars. There are just two switches on the roof of the car, which can be accessed by passenger to ascertain whether the safety device is working and not tampered with when he/she gets in to the vehicle. The other is the panic button; on pressing, the electronic signals are sent to cutoff fuel supply to the engine, which stops the car and jams the driver’s door and seat belt, while other three doors can be opened so that passengers can get out of the vehicle. Also, the vehicle sets off an alarm to people around so that they can reach the passenger for help.
