    (AIKTC, 2017-04-02) Shah, Ubaid; Qureshi, Mohd. Hasan; Siddique, Aafaque; Mukadam, Aakeeb
    The aim of this project is to develop an alternative solution for conventional two wheel steering system. In modern era, the major characteristics of the vehicle like steer ability and handling have become major aspects. Conventional steering involve either the Ackerman or Davis steering system which has major disadvantage is it can't take minimum radius turn. Providing zero turn steering without any compromise in steer ability and handling of the vehicle is a major concern for automakers. The main intention is to improve the zero turn steer ability of the vehicle without wheel wandering problems. The number of vehicles is continuously increasing and it’s causing the problem of traffic congestion. To overcome problem like vehicle manoeuvring on narrow roads and during parking this system has been proposed. Zero turn steering gives much better manoeuvrability and control on the car.
