Vehicle Flood Protection System (VFPS)

Abstract

This project is focus on development of a Vehicle Flood Protection System (VFPS) in order to a system to protect vehicle from being damaged by flood especially in flood affected areas. A prototype model to be designed and developed to evaluate the working operation of the whole system. The system will operate by automatically adjust the height of vehicle depending on the water level from the ground surface. Knowledge on the sensor, controller and motor will be applied in this project. This sensor will send signal to the microcontroller to control motor operation in order to drive the jack and lift up the vehicle. The vehicle will be lower down when the water level inside the garage decreases. The sensor, microcontroller and motor are the main components of VFPS.
