# 🚗 **Smart Braking System with Arduino** 🚦

[![Arduino](https://img.shields.io/badge/Made%20With-Arduino-blue.svg?style=for-the-badge)](https://www.arduino.cc/)

🌟 **A safety-first braking system using IR sensors, a servo motor, and a relay module to detect obstacles and engage brakes automatically or manually!**

---

## 🛠️ **Features**
- **Obstacle Detection**: IR sensors scan for nearby objects and trigger the brakes.
- **Manual Control**: Engage brakes using a switch.
- **Smooth Servo Braking**: A servo motor moves precisely to engage/disengage brakes.
- **Power Management**: Relay cuts off power to other systems during braking.

## 🔧 **Components You’ll Need**

| **Component** | **Quantity** | **Purpose** |
|-----------------------|--------------|------------------------------------|
| Arduino Board | 1 | Controls the system logic |
| Servo Motor | 1 | Engages/disengages braking |
| Relay Module | 1 | Manages power flow during braking |
| IR Sensors | 6 | Detects obstacles |
| Manual Switch | 1 | Allows manual braking control |
| Connecting Wires | As Needed | Connect all components |

---

## 📝 **Future Enhancements**
- Add a **buzzer** to alert when brakes are engaged.
- Include **distance measurement** with ultrasonic sensors.
- Develop a mobile app interface for remote control.
