Human Rail Accident Prevention System

Electronics Engineering

Transportation systems include air, water, and land modes, with the latter comprising roadways, railways, and off-road transport. Among these, roadways, railways, and airways are the most commonly used. Railways are often preferred due to their affordability and convenience. The Indian railway network, the third-largest in the world, plays a significant role in transportation. However, railway accidents remain a concern, particularly those occurring at stations due to the gap between the train and the platform. This "platform gap" poses a serious risk to passenger safety. To address this issue, the Indian government has proposed raising platform heights to reduce the gap. However, this solution is both challenging and costly, as it disrupts platform accessibility during construction. My project introduces a more practical and cost-effective alternative: mechanical platform gap fillers.
