IoT-Enabled Smart Helmet System for Enhanced Road Safety and Accident Prevention

An Arduino-powered accident detection helmet designed to enhance motorcycle safety. The helmet incorporates an alcohol sensor (MQ3) to prevent intoxicated riders from starting their bikes. The system also features an IR sensor for anti-sleep detection, triggering a buzzer and flashing LEDs at the back of the helmet if the rider's eyes remain closed for more than five seconds. This feature aims to alert other road users and potentially prevent accidents caused by drowsiness. The helmet includes 4 LEDs at the back for increased visibility during night time riding, further contributing to rider safety. Data on helmet usage and accident fatalities suggests that many lives could be saved if all bikers wore helmets. This innovative helmet aims to address multiple safety concerns and contribute to a safer riding experience for motorcyclists. The Arduino powered Helmet is a ground breaking innovation that elevates motorcycle safety and connectivity, providing riders with a smart and proactive system to improve their riding experience and reduce hazards.
