Abstract: This article outlines a design strategy for an Microcontroller ESP8266 based safety system to prevent railway accidents. When a train is some few distance away from an object (a person or an animal), this railway accident prevention safety system commands the train driver (Loco Pilot) if it is on the track. In this system, a high-frequency sound wave is transmitted by an ultrasonic sensor, which then waits for the sound to return before calculating the distance based on the required amount of time. In order to alert people to the impending arrival of a train, an ultrasonic sensor works by scanning for and identifying the vehicle. It then sends a signal to a buzzer to generate an alarm on the railway track. Injuries to train passengers, environmental damage, and property loss can all be caused by the interruption of the rail crossing's right of way. Therefore, there's a need to look into alternate techniques to prevent or mitigate these mishaps, such as using an microcontroller based safety system.
