MINI-PROJECT ASSOCIATES
 ABSTRACT
The fastest growth of technology has made our lifestyle Comfort. The technology also

increased the traffic risks and the road accidents take place frequently which causes huge loss

of life because inadequate of emergency facility our project will help this displacement. The

project concludes when a vehicle meets with an accident, the vibration and IR sensor will

analyze the signal and this signal to Arduino. The notification is sent through GSM module

the location of the accident is gathered with the help of GPS module, to notify police control

room or a rescue team.

So, the police or rescue team can immediately trace the location through the GPS

Module, after receiving the information. Then after confirming the location necessary action

will be taken And Video of the accident can be live streamed or can be stored with the help of

camera. The aim of this work is to automatically detect an accident and alert the rescue team

or control station.
