Microcontroller-Based Modular Mirror for Heavy and Mid-Commercial Vehicles

Existing ICE Mid and Heavy commercial vehicles in the Indian and international market are recording a large number of mishaps due to blind spots and non-accessibility of the driver to the opposite side mirror in real-time driving. Non-driver side rear view mirror adjustment creates the need for the driver to get down and adjust the mirror manually/get support from the co-passenger. The paper proposes a solution for a Microcontroller-based compact mirror adjustment system, which will run with minimal economy and highest efficiency. ​This will assist drivers in aesthetically and safely monitoring of mirror to check on specific blind spots in day conditions This will reduce the prone accidents due to non-visibility by approximately 30%, ensuring enhanced road safety and driver comfort. The Indian commercial vehicle segment needs this solution to be implemented when we look at the rate of increasing demand and also accident rates.
