Smart Features for Electric Vehicles

  T E Ajay Gopal

Various technological advancements in science & technology had led to the invention of automobiles which has now become a quintessential part of everyone’s lives. Advanced technologies are integrated into these automobile systems which make them convenient and easy to use. However, these advanced technologies still have their own drawbacks owing to its dependence on man. The working features of the automobile systems if made smart, it would make the automobile systems more efficient, effective and reliable. The demand for smart features for automobile systems arises from the need to develop ways in which the vehicle can be controlled automatically and monitored from anywhere thereby removing manpower from the front line. In this project, the first system is a passcode-protected engine access system. This is analogous to the passcode lock we use in our phones. Using keys for starting automobiles are effective but becomes a problem when the keys are misplaced or lost. Also, as the emergence of electric vehicles has begun, having a passcode system as opposed to a key seems more reliable. The motive of the second system is the cruise control system which analyses and monitors the speed at which the vehicle is moving. At times, the electric vehicle might stop functioning and the detected reason would be because of a drained or damaged battery which is not easily known to the user. By implementing our third system, where the user can continuously monitor the battery level and its performance, this problem could be rectified.

Keywords- Battery, Cruise Control, Electric Vehicle (EV), Pass-Code.
