In the present day, the dashboard of most vehicles consists of a speedometer, a temperature indicator, a pressure indicator, and fuel gauges. No provision has been provided for indicating load on the vehicle. The load of the vehicle is measured in the specific weight range. This chapter presents the hardware implementation of sensing of the load on the vehicle and displaying on the LCD wherein the deflection of leaf spring is used to measure the load. The load will get displayed on the display module which will be integrated in the driver cabinet. Automatically calculating or estimating the total payload delivered to the vehicle by the excavator’s work tool is one way to measure the total weight of the material loaded into a truck. This approach of measuring the load on the vehicle has proved to be effective in solving many issues related to drivers, vehicle owners, and government along with providing various safety measures. The hardware developed in this chapter will help in keeping track of the total weight of each payload.
