Abstract
In the present time, the reason for many cases of bicycle accidents around us is due to negligence of wearing helmets. The helmet is the safety gear to prevent head injuries in an uncontrolled environment and saves the life of many people. This paper presents a smart helmet to ensure safety driving. This proposed idea thus addresses three main objectives: (i) as a means of ensure safety, (ii) to justify the rising modern needs of technological innovations, and (iii) to overcome the helmet inquietudes. The smart helmet allows vehicle ignition only when the helmet is worn as well as checking the sobriety of the driver. This reduces the accidental risk by a major factor. The drivers at remote locations are also ensured safety by making use of GPRS and GSM. By gathering information about the location of the driver by means of the GPRS present in the person’s device and by measuring the tilt factor, the tilt of the vehicle can be measured for detecting accidents, and messages can be sent to the contacts listed in the device by means of GSM, In addition, an android app is being developed to help the vehicle driver to locate the vehicle when it is parked in a new location.
