<![CDATA[The distance warning system on a dump truck is a system designed to alert the driver when the distance between the dump truck and an object in front of it exceeds a predetermined threshold, using both visual and audible alerts. In this final project, the distance warning system was implemented on a dump truck using an Arduino Uno as the microcontroller and a LiDAR sensor as the input source to detect the distance between the dump truck and the object in front of it; the LiDAR sensor is also capable of providing consistent distance data. Testing was conducted to measure the accuracy and consistency of the distance warning system so that the test results could demonstrate that the distance warning system on the dump truck is capable of accurately alerting the driver, thereby enhancing safety and minimizing the risk of accidents involving dump trucks in the field. One of the tests conducted assessed the accuracy of the lidar sensor in detecting distance, with a maximum detectable range of 40 meters and a tolerance limit of ±2.5 cm for distances <5 meters and ±10 cm for distances >5 meters.]]>
