Welcome to the Arduino Railway Safety Project! This project aims to enhance railway safety with three key features: automatic crossing bar, platform safety, and train coming alert.

## Features

1. **Automatic Crossing Bar:**
- Automatically lowers the crossing bar when a train is approaching to prevent traffic from crossing the railway.

2. **Platform Safety:**
- Ensures safety on railway platforms by alerting passengers about approaching trains and preventing accidents.

3. **Train Coming Alert:**
- Detects the approach of trains and alerts nearby individuals to ensure their safety.

## Issue Resolution

**Issue:** We encountered a problem where the sonar sensor would detect any object as a train, leading to the crossing bar being lowered unnecessarily.

**Solution:**
- Implemented a load module to distinguish between trains and other objects based on weight.
- By cross-checking the weight detected by the load module, we can accurately determine if a train is approaching and lower the crossing bar accordingly.

## Version

This is version 1.0 of the Arduino Railway Safety Project.
