Automated Lead Acid Battery Detector and Monitoring System for Vehicles

The study mainly aimed to provide automation in detecting and monitoring system for lead acid battery of the motorcycle. The study focuses on the secondary lead acid battery and it describes a prototype system to monitor battery status. The prototype monitors the electrolyte level, temperature and humidity and stores data and provide an LED lights for indication of the lead acid battery’s voltage. To monitor these lead acid battery parameters, the proponent developed a prototype that has a Zigbee technology role as a transceiver of the prototype. Voltage, Electrolyte level, temperature and humidity are the secondary lead acid battery parameters being monitored by the prototype. The study helps the motorcycle drivers to be more aware of the status of the battery. There are 50 respondents divided into 3 which is the Students contain with 30 respondents, Drivers contain with 10 respondents and Expert/Mechanics contain with 10 respondents. Overall rating of the functionality, reliability and usability had a weighted mean of 3.78 mark as agree which means the prototype is applicable. In future research work it must include the external factors not included in this paper.
