Abstract:
The Automatic Toll Gate system is designed to automate the process of vehicle entry and exit at toll plazas, reducing human intervention and traffic congestion. This project utilizes an Arduino Uno, ultrasonic sensor, and servo motor to detect approaching vehicles and control the barrier. The ultrasonic sensor continuously measures the distance to detect a vehicle, and when a vehicle is within a specified range, the Arduino triggers the servo motor to lift the gate automatically. Once the vehicle passes, the gate closes safely. This system is simple, cost-effective, and enhances traffic management by providing a fast and reliable method of toll collection, while minimizing manual operation errors.
Introduction:
With the rapid increase in the number of vehicles on roads, manual toll collection has become time-consuming and inefficient, often leading to traffic congestion and human errors. An Automatic Toll Gate system aims to solve these issues by automating vehicle detection and gate operation. Using an Arduino Uno, an ultrasonic sensor, and a servo motor, this system can detect approaching vehicles and automatically open and close the gate without human intervention. The ultrasonic sensor measures the distance of the vehicle from the gate, and the Arduino processes this information to control the servo motor, which raises or lowers the barrier. This technology provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective solution for modern traffic management and toll collection.

Objectives:
1. To design an automated toll gate system that can detect approaching vehicles.
2. To control the gate barrier automatically using a servo motor.
3. To reduce traffic congestion and waiting time at toll plazas.
4. To minimize human intervention and errors in toll collection.
5. To create a cost-effective and reliable solution for traffic management.
