Early Detection of Overheating in Motorcycle Disc Brakes Based on Arduino

The braking system is very important on a motorcycle. primary function of the to slow down and even stop using disc brakes motorcycles commonly used today, especially automatic transmission motorcycles. One disadvantages heat caused by disc's friction with brake pads if you apply continuous braking. This often done motor rider when crossing downhill roads in mountainous areas. Excessive causes fluid boil, resulting air bubbles failure. failure motorcycle hazardous for others. experimental method detects catching brake's temperature touchless sensor, MLX90614. Temperature detection processed Arduino as control, displayed LCD. If above 200oC, buzzer activated warning driver. test results show that can display reading LCD lower than thermometer gun, most inferior difference 0.2oC highest 0.4oC. also notifications users temperatures namely at 211.1oC, 224.3oC, 237.5oC, which were achieved 200, 225, 250 seconds.
