Abstract:
Most of the motorbike riders meet a fatal end due to severe head injuries during
accidents. Usually in Asian countries, riders are reluctant to wear helmets while riding
motorbikes due to carelessness and negligence. This research aims at reducing the accidents that
may occur due to such carelessness and at the same time, immediately report the accident to the
emergency contact numbers. This research work is aimed at making the necessary conditions
essential to start the motorbike. The rider needs to wear the helmet, should be free from
consumption of alcohol and should take off the side stand before igniting the vehicle; failure of
any one of this condition would not ignite the engine. The proposed system detects the accident
occurrence as well. SMS will be sent to the emergency numbers through the GSM module. The
prototype works on start mode, running mode and accident mode with different functionalities
in each mode. The rider needs to clear the start on mode to ignite the engine and a smart system
will continuously monitor the bike and rider in the running mode. In case of unexpected
interruptions during running mode, the proposed system enters into accident mode and enables
GSM to report the accident to the pre-registered phone number.
