    The document describes the components and development of a vehicle classification and counting device. The device uses a contact switch sensor in a road tube to detect vehicle pressure and send signals to a microcontroller. The microcontroller counts and identifies the vehicle type, then displays the results on an LCD screen. The device development involves an input (contact switch), processing (microcontroller), and output (LCD display) system programmed using C language in the Arduino IDE.

    Methods

    Device Analysis

    The diagram in Fig. 10 shows that the microcontroller will be receiving

    signals from the contact switch sensor whenever a load pressure is applied to

    the road tube. These signals will be used in counting and identifying the type

    of vehicle which will then be displayed to the LCD as text and number values.

    Development of the Device

    The developing of the device will be composed of three parts, namely:

    input, process and output. The program will be coded in C programming

    language using the Arduino Software (IDE) to be loaded in microcontroller.
