Abstract - Accidents are increasing day by day, also there is

Over speeding: Most of the accidents are occur due to the over speeding it is the natural psychology of humans to excel and to win, if there is a chance human will go to infinity in speed. But as the speed thrills it also kills, faster vehicles riders are more prone to accident.

many laws and regulations are posed by government in order to avoid this road accidents. Accidents can be the unplanned event or the mistake that may occur resulting in injury and sometimes it also leads to death. The accidents occur in two wheelers are more compared to other vehicles. Although enough road rules and regulations are made by the government to avoid accidents, but the accident rate is increasing day by day. This may be avoided by wearing helmets and riding vehicles carefully. However wearing helmet can reduce the risk of accidents majorly. In this smart helmet system is providing safety to the rider in a most effective and technological way using Internet of Things (IoT) has been implemented for accident prevention, accident detection and also quick GPS location recovery system. This proposal also helps to understand IoT technology which is being emerged now a day’s .From the method proposed using Arduino UNO, MEGA and other cost effective sensors like an IR sensor. The bike engine will start only when the rider will worn the helmet. It detects the head of the bike rider within the range. A Radio Frequency (RF) Module is used for wireless communication between helmet unit as transmitter and bike unit as receiver. Ultrasonic senor used to detect nearby approaching vehicle’s and send voice alerts to rider by speakers, Most important utility of this method is that fall detection using Vibrator Sensor and GSM & GPS module system is included so that emergency medical service can easily track the location of the incident occurs and also sending SMS message alert to the emergency number of the rider stored. Smart helmet system helps to provide accident detection, safety and security to the two wheeler riders.

Drunken Driving: Consumption of alcohol to celebrate any instance is very common. But when it is mixed with driving it turns enjoyment to misery. Alcohol can reduces concentration of riding. It decreases reaction time of a rider body. Hands and legs take more time to react. It suppress vision due to dizziness. Alcohol dampens fear and incite humans to take risks. All these factors while driving cause accident. Avoiding safety gears and helmet: Most of the motor cycle riders doesn’t wear helmet while driving the motor cycle many studies have shown that helmets and other safety gears reduce the impact of the accident to a great extend but many did not wear even though it is made into law.

1.1 Statement of Problem In the time of study for the project we considered various scenarios the accidents in case of two wheelers are more compared to other vehicles. Although enough road rules and regulations are made by the government to avoid accidents, but the accident rate is increasing day by day when occurring at remote places are becoming fatal due to the slow reach of treatment sometimes the person only gets the medical assistance after 6 to 7 hours this increases the death rate on an accident and it is evident that when an accident occurred in the city, they got medical help or assistance within 30 minutes. Riding without proper helmet equipment and consumption of alcohol mostly ends with road accident. Also not following government road rules and regulation, reckless driving can also cause accident. These can be reduced or solved by using the Smart helmet system which helps to provide accident detection, safety and security to the bike riders.

Key Words: Prevention, Detection, Recovery, Smart helmet, IoT, GSM GPS location, Sensors.

1. INTRODUCTION India is the one of the densely most populated country. This exponential raise in the population and due to the recent pandemic many people did not prefer to use public transport to go to their work and to travel this increased sales of the motor cycles rapidly compared to 2019, the sales has been doubled in 2022 this increase the traffic among the Indian roads and increase in the number of road accidents according to the 2019 report 42% of accidents occur in India are because of motorcycles. There are several causes for road accidents in India the major cause for road accidents are given below.

Impact Factor value: 7.529

1.2 Aim and Objectives of the project: The main objectives of the project are: 

To develop a smart system that provides safety to motorcycle riders.
