Real time smart honking system

The ever increasing cases of ailments because of noise pollution, both physical and mental presents the direst need for a sustainable and an economically viable solution. The aggressive honking of the horn from the vehicles treading on a road is a major source of noise pollution and is highly undesirable and irritating. The residential areas, schools, hospitals and other workplaces nearby are adversely affected. Our work aims at developing the disincentive measure for unwanted honking by developing a real time (smart) honking system which enables the vehicles on the road to communicate amongst them without releasing horn in surroundings. Such seamless transport system involves the integration of vehicular technology and communication networks. Priority to the emergency vehicles (like ambulance, fire brigade)is incorporated as a prominent feature. This system also includes features to lessen road accidents caused due to partial hearing of driver and inability of the driver to listen to horn due to loud music being played inside the vehicle. With the advent of such type of smart system, authors look forward to efficient and sustainable transport system in the future.
