A POWER EFFICIENT SMART HELMET FOR SAFE DRIVING AND DROWSINESS DETECTION

Abstract

A smart helmet is a form of protective headgear worn by the rider that contributes to a more secure experience while riding a motorcycle. This helmet's primary function is to protect the rider's head from injury. Use of advanced features such as drowsiness detection, accident identification, location monitoring, hands-free use, and fall detection can help achieve this goal. This creates a feature of a smart helmet. When the rider is wearing the helmet and if the rider fell drowsy, the helmet will detect the event by the IR sensor and will turn on the buzzer to alert the rider. In the event of an accident, the GSM module will transmit a message with the GPS location attached. The unique benefit of this project is its ability to recognize when a rider has fallen off the bike and deliver a notification.
