An Iot Based Automatic Vehicle Accident Detection and Rescue System

This document summarizes a thesis project that proposes an IoT-based vehicle accident detection and rescue system. The system uses an accelerometer sensor in vehicles to detect accidents, then sends alerts with location data from a GPS module to emergency contacts via GSM. This allows rescue teams to quickly locate accident sites to reduce response times. The system is powered by an Arduino microcontroller and includes additional hardware like an LCD display. The document outlines the objectives, hardware components, block diagram, and concludes the proposed system could help reduce deaths by automatically notifying rescue teams of accident locations.

IOT Based Automatic Vehicle Accident Detection and Rescue System
Introduction-
The rapid rise of technology and infrastructure has made our lives easier. The high demand of
automobiles has also increased the traffic hazards and road accidents. Life of the people is
under high risk. The delay in reaching of the ambulance to the accident location and the
traffic congestion in between accident location and hospital increases the chances of death of
the victim.
To overcome this problem our automatic rescue system comes to the rescue. This proposed
IOT based accident detection system helps to reduce the loss of life due to accident.
To detect the accident there is accelerometer sensor present in this rescue system and the
GSM module included sends messages about the location to the respective guardian and
rescue team.
As the vehicle rotates, accelerometer sensor captures the rotation and sends it to
Microcontroller used in device, sends the alert message to the registered mobile number (to
guardian or a rescue team) through the GSM module even the location as GPS used.
So, the emergency help team can immediately trace the location through the GPS module,
after receiving the accident location information, action can be taken immediately. This
accelerometer-based accident detection system is powered by Atmega 328 microcontroller it
consists of display, accelerometer sensor, GSM module and alarm. This rescue system project
is useful in detecting the accident even in deserted area.

Literature Survey-
To protect the vehicle and tracking so many advanced technologies are available in now a
days. In olden days the information of accident can be transferred, but the place of accident
spot cannot be identified. In any vehicle airbags are designed, air bags are used for security
and safety travels. The air bag system was introduced in the year of 1968.

OBJECTIVES:
One particular concern that Public Safety Organizations (PSO) must account for whilst
engaging in many activities is decreasing the effect of vehicle accidents, aiding as many
injured people as possible and providing 24/7 on the spot rescue. The Red Cross
humanitarian organization is one of the most known PSOs to be present on-site whenever an
accident or a disaster takes place. However, some of the rescue teams face difficulty in
reaching the injured people to due late alerts and insufficient information of the specific
accident location.
The advent of the mobile phone and Internet of Things (IoT) industries reshaped the way
people communicate and brought a paradigm shift to public and private services. This
technology marked the beginning of new era affecting the lives of people and various
businesses. This paper conveys a smart and reliable IoT system solution which instantly
notifies the PSO headquarter whenever an accident takes place and pinpoints its geographic
coordinates on the map. When an accident takes place, a shock sensor detects it. Then, an
algorithm is applied to process the sensor signal and send the geographic location along with
some ancillary information to the PSO headquarter, indicating accident occurrence. This is a
promising system expected to aid in the tedious rescuing process by reporting in a matter of
seconds the location of an accident, the passengers injured, blood types, thus lowering death’s
rates. The geographical data collected from this system could be relied upon as admissible
evidence or indicator of the road state and conditions.

Future Scope- The proposed system deals with the detection of the accidents. But this
can be extended by providing medication to the victims at the accident spot. By increasing
the technology, we can also avoid accidents by providing alerts systems that can stop the
vehicle to overcome the accidents.

CONCLUSION:
The proposed system deals with the accident alerting and detection. Arduino is the heart of
the system which helps in transferring the message to different devices in the system.
Vibration sensor will be activated when the accident occurs and the information is transferred
to the registered number through GSM module. Using GPS, the location can be sent through
tracking system to cover the geographical
coordinates over the area. The accident can be detected by a vibration sensor which is used as
major module in the system.
