# 🚗 Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) Simulation in Tinkercad
This project simulates a basic **Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)** system using **Tinkercad**, demonstrating how an ultrasonic sensor can detect obstacles and automatically stop a vehicle (DC motor) to prevent collision. It's a simple representation of real-world AEB systems used in modern electric and autonomous vehicles.
## 🧰 Components Used
- Arduino Uno
- Ultrasonic Sensor (HC-SR04)
- DC Motor
- Buzzer
- L293D Motor Driver (or simulated transistor setup)
- Breadboard and connecting wires
## 💡 Concept
The ultrasonic sensor continuously measures the distance to the nearest object. When the distance falls below a defined safety threshold (e.g., 20 cm), the Arduino triggers:
- **DC Motor stop** — simulating the vehicle braking.
- **Buzzer ON** — as a warning signal to the driver.
This emulates a basic version of how real vehicles automatically brake when they detect a potential collision.
## ▶️ Try It Yourself
You can interact with the project and run the simulation on Tinkercad:
