We made Preliminary pages, Abstract and Chapter one of “the rate and causes of infant mortality in edo state (case study of irrua specialist teaching hospital)” visible for everyone, then the complete material on “the rate and causes of infant mortality in edo state (case study of irrua specialist teaching hospital)” is to be ordered for. Happy viewing!!!
A police siren is a loud electronics device that produces sound similar to police siren. Siren is used to get other road users or drivers on the road out of their way. This project is on police siren sound that sound effects like the siren of an ambulance or police car which features low-pitched tones alternately. This project will be comprised of the oscillator circuits of two set. Using IC-555 timer IC are main both unit. The first oscillator serve determine time period in changing a high-low sound tone, provide the proper frequencies about 0.5-1 Hertz. Then, second oscillator set the siren sound, before out to a speaker.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT
Nowadays, there are a lot of emergency lights systems being used all over the world, and we cannot discuss all in this work. Siren has been around for a while and, although the most common type today is the so-called lightbar, there was a time when the whole system was a lot simpler. In 1940, security departments used just a single beacon to attract everyone's attention and let them know that an official vehicle is approaching. Just like it happens today, when the siren was turned on, the other drivers (if any, given the traffic values at that time) were requested to clear the road and thus allow the security to pass safely.
Using this kind of technology had multiple advantages and the ace up its sleeve was definitely the cost. Purchasing a single beacon was of course a lot more affordable than investing in more complex solutions. Plus, since cars weren't quite that fast at that time, the air resistance such a beacon had to face was pretty low, which means it could serve its purpose very well.
But time passed by and law enforcement agencies looked for more advanced and, extremely importantly, more efficient technologies. The single beacon we were talking about turned into a magnetic-mount system that allowed on-the-go use and which, in its turn, got replaced by full-sized light bars with multiple sound.
What you're seeing today is what could be called the modern light bar which is, in essence, a contemporary interpretation of the traditional light bar introduced in early 1990s. Obviously, the siren sound may vary by country and the law enforcement organization that owns the vehicles.
1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT
When police is in state of emergency can be traffic jammed and sometimes can also cause accident to motorist if their approach is not made known to the motorist and pedestrians. Police vehicles use a siren together with police lights for the purpose of warning motorists of their approach. Motorists are always expected to give priority to police vehicles that are responding to an emergency and can be recognized by the sound of a siren.
Police vehicles use a siren with the main goal of signaling their approach. This gives drivers more than enough time to react appropriately as this is essential due to the high speed associated with police cars responding to an emergency. The siren needs to be loud and clear, and there are specific sirens used for use only on police vehicles. This identifies sound as an approaching police car and cannot be confused with a siren used for any other reason.
1.3 OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT
The objective of this study is to design an electronic device that produces siren sound. This device was built around 555 timer integrated circuits. The 555 timer IC is an integrated circuit (chip) used for pulse generation, and oscillator applications. This device has the ability to produce different siren sounds when the potentiometer of the circuit is tuned.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCS OF THE PROJECT
Police sirens are a necessity when officers are called to respond to a crime, clearing road traffic to allow a quicker response, the sirens serve as a calling card to the criminal and the victim that the police are on the way. Sirens are to alert people that an emergency vehicle is approaching so that they can get out of its way. As such, the sirens are designed to catch drivers and pedestrians attention.
1.5 PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT
The purpose of this work is to design an outdoor siren sound generating system which is used to alert persons outside of potential danger. The sirens are sounded whenever a warning is issued. They may also be activated for other situations which require citizens to take shelter and seek more information from media outlets.
1.6 THE EFFECTS OF POLICE SIRENS
Aside from clearing road traffic to allow a quicker response Sirens have ulterior effects, from societal to health issues.
Loss of Hearing
- The average person has 30,000 hair cells the transmit sound waves into nerve impulses. Loud noise destroys them, thus affecting your hearing. Long term or close, sudden exposure to the average siren, at 123 decibels, can affect hearing and even cause hearing loss.
Increased Blood Pressure and Heart Rate
- The World Health Organization said in 2008 that sudden noise from police sirens not only increases noise pollution, but also impacts a person's health, raising their heart rate and blood pressure and posing a serious health issue.
Bad Neighborhood
- The constant sound of sirens can negatively affect an entire community, adding to a perception that the community is a "high crime" area or one where there is "increased danger" for residents.
Traffic Danger
- Accidents, sometimes fatal, do occur when police cars race to a crime scene with their sirens wailing. Once a driver hears the siren, his first instinct is to turn to the side of the road. But drivers may hear the siren and not see the police car, and their efforts to locate the police takes their eyes off the road, and into danger.
No Sleep
- sirens wailing throughout the night, particularly in high crime urban areas, interfere with sleep, which produces stress and anxiety. Police in many cities, such some major cities in Nigeria, must follow strict guidelines when using their sirens when called to a crime.
1.7 SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
This siren simulated electronic project uses two 555 timers IC to generate a sound similar to the police siren. A single 556 timer IC which consists of two 555 timers can also be used. In this circuit, both of the timers are configured as astable circuit.
The first timer is configured as a square wave close to 1 Hz astable oscillator. The output of this timer is used to feed the control voltage of the second timer where it is subjected to frequency modulation. This frequency modulation will generate a tone similar to the siren. From the circuit, when the variable resistor is tuned, the siren will produce different sound.
1.8 APPLICATION OF THE PROJECT
Sirens are used on emergency service vehicles such as:
- ambulances,
- police cars,
- Federal road safety corps,
- fire trucks.
- And other security personnel
