The Novel of Embedded based Digital Fuel Gauge

R. Rashmi, Rukmini Durgale

Abstract


In this modern and fast running world everything is going to be digitized to be easily understandable and also to give exact calculation. Considering this idea we started a worked named Using GPS –GSM Technologies Indication of Digital Fuel, which shows the exact amount of fuel remaining in the fuel gauge as compared to the previously used gauge meter in which a needle moves to give a rough estimate of the fuel left. Most of the petrol bunks today have manipulated the pumps such that it displays the amount as entered but the quantity of fuel filled in the customer’s tank is much lesser than the displayed value. Therefore the pumps are tampered for the benefit of the petrol bunks owner. This results in huge profits for the petrol bunks but at the same time the customers are cheated. All most all the vehicles consist of analog meters hence it is not possible to precisely know the amount of fuel currently in the vehicle and also it is not possible to cross check the quantity of fuel filled in the petrol bunk. In this work we focuses on creating a digital display of the exact amount of fuel contained in the vehicles tank and also helps in cross checking the quantity of fuel filled at the petrol bunk. Finally once the fuel is filled at a bunk the device also sends an SMS to the vehicle owner indicating the amount of fuel filled in the tank and total filled. And also we can find the exact location of the vehicle
