A secure railway crossing system using IoT

The aim of this paper is to develop a prototype that control the railway gate using the micro-controller. Whenever train touches base at the sensor, caution is activated at the railway crossing so that the general population get instruction that entryway will be shut. At that point the control module initiates and shuts the gates on either side of the track. Once the train crosses, this module naturally lifts the gate. For mechanical operation of a gate DC adapted engines are utilized. We are utilizing an installed controller worked around the 8051 family (AT89C52) for the control. As per the instructions produced at the microcontroller, the proper action (i.e., shut or lift) will be made. This logic was implemented in Embedded C and dumped to the Raspberry PI. This prototype was tested and successfully shuts the gate at the time of train arrival and lifts after train crosses other end.
