Stop Noise Pollution From Honking

Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

Noise is one of the environmental pollutants that are encountered by residents in day to day life. Noise pollution generates many health hazards and hampers the process of communication. The major noise is generated by the traffic. In India Honking is a common occurrence. So we need to consider numerous factors to monitor and access the traffic noise and noise planning for its reduction. Honking can be controlled by counseling the drivers. The System uses microcontroller, LCD Screen, RTC Module and GSM module. The LCD screen shows the day count, week count and moth count. The horn is pressed by the driver will increase the counter and when the honking limit exceed the controller will turn off the horn and the message is send to the driver through GSM. The message will send to the driver daily, weekly and monthly. The message consisting of the warning and the count limit. The next day the counter reset and start from zero, try to control the human tendency of unnecessary honking. The human habit of honking will not be suddenly change it needs time. The system will put limit to Honking habits of humans. The proposed system does not suggest the elimination of the current horn system, instead, it operates in coexistence.
