Problem Statement
• Need to prevent passengers from remaining on the bus after the driver leaves the bus.
• Need for automatic detection system- Rectifies problem of driver not checking the bus
General Solution-Approach Statement• Develop initial design
• Present design to client for approval
• Order parts
• Assemble prototype circuits
• Test prototype circuits
• Combine circuits into complete detection system
• Test detection system
Operating Environment• Transient bus
• Vibrations- Bus’s engine
- Roadways traveled• Environmental elements
- Dust
- Dirt
- Moisture
• Normal temperatures
• Withstand pressure given off by passengers
Intended Users/Uses
Users• male or female adult• commercial driver’s license• no discrimination on the basis of sex, ethnic background, physical
size, or disability• able to operate the commercial vehicle according to the laws of the
state.
Uses• automatically detect remaining passengers and possible items • alarm driver of the situation before he or she has fully exited the bus.
Assumptions• Will be used on a transient bus
• Occupancy ranges from ten to seventy-five passengers
• System off while bus is running
• System starts when bus shuts off
• Automatic
• Versatile
• Pressure sensors cover all seats
• LED’s attenuation is eight to ten feet

Alarm System Approaches
Technical Approach Results
Hybrid system
• Seats - pressure sensitive resistors
• Floor - infrared emitters / photodiode detectors
Research Activities
• Phase detection
Remove overlapped signals of unwanted emitters
Synchronous detection methods allow detectors to accept only wanted signals
• Seat weight distribution
Distribute weight located anywhere on a seat to the force sensor
Design Constraints
Physical properties – System should not be restrictive, distracting, or discomforting to the driver and passengers.
Size – System should not interfere with normal bus operations. Fail-safe – System should never neglect to alert if a passenger is
present when the bus is shut off.
Power consumption – Power from the system must come from a 12-volt battery.
Response time – System will need to respond within 3-7 seconds of the bus being shut off.
Design Constraints (cont’d)
• Robust – System may be exposed to the elements and anything tracked on by passengers such as: rain, snow, mud, dust, and dirt.
• Flexible – Design implementation must be supported for several bus designs.
• Cost effective – If system cost is over $100, some type of funding must be provided.
System DesignPart I: Pressure Sensors
Purpose: – To detect a left behind passenger and/or item located on
the seats.
Basic Operation:– If pressure is detected on the sensor then an analog signal
is output triggering the alarm.
Pressure Sensors
Bus Schematic – Pressure Sensors
Force Sensitive Resistor Sensors
Wiring
Buzzer Alarm System
• Force-to-voltage circuit• Rf sets sensitivity of circuit• Signaling voltage pre-determined according to Rf• Output will signal parallelizing circuit to trigger alarm
Pressure Sensing Circuit
• Initial force-to-voltage circuit design
– Removed negative voltage from op-amp
– Altered input voltage to incorporate bus battery voltage
• Short range of linear output voltage– Set alarm trigger voltage within the linear range
• Size of sensing surface area small– Install a surface to distribute weight from anywhere on
the seat to the sensing area
Pressure Sensor Implementation
• Testing output voltage of force-to-voltage circuit (lab)
– Variable pressure sensor sensitivities (1 lb, 25 lb, 100 lb)
– Variable input voltages
– Variable Rf resistance
•
• Largest S occurred with 100 lb sensor and Rs = 100 kΩ– Voltage difference = 3 V
Pressure Sensor Testing
System DesignPart II: Optics
Optics
Purpose: •To detect a left behind passenger and/or item located on the floor.•To detect a left behind passengers in a wheelchair

Optics
Why Infrared light?• To prevent interference from ambient light• Optical receiver designed to only recognize infrared light
(tinted photodiode)• To maintain a failsafe detection system
Optics
Benefits: • Low Cost • Small (Will not alter the aesthetics of the bus)• Very low maintenance • System does not impose any health risk
Optics
Drawbacks:• Tampering with may cause issues
Solution: -Enclose in box-type structure-Sheet of plexy-glass over aperture

• Potential market for this product is large- Every large capacity transportation company (bus, airline)
Recommendations for Additional Work
• Detect items in specific locations
• Timer/Delay
• Alarm fully on or off
• Reset/override
• Digital display
Lessons Learned
• Practical and applicable solution
• Time constraints and inability to catch up
• Circuit design
• Research techniques
• Application of engineering skills to real world problems
• Set more strict deadlines
• Documentation
Risk and Risk Management• Time consumption of learning the technologies used
– Consulting advisor more often than not• Complete redesign of optoelectronics
– Learn the technology• Delay in ordering parts
– Ordered parts as soon as possible• Unavailability of times for the team to meet
– Two smaller teams• Reliability of the breadboards used in circuitry
– Troubleshoot, troubleshoot• Receiving wrong parts
– Use replacement parts– Redesign circuitry
•Small size of the pressure sensing area– Find a surface to distribute weight to the sensor
Closing Summary
• Passenger detection system
• Hybrid design using two technologies
