IoT Enabled Smart Bicycle Safety System

Bicycle crushes with automobile vehicles in roads mostly in curved roads and kills thousands of bicyclist with great injuries in every year. This fact indicates the importance of advancement in conventional vehicle systems. This paper presents a prototype model of smart bicycle safety system using Arduino Mega 2560 and Arduino Uno Rev3. The system consists of hand gesture and push button to show turn direction of rider, send messages along with location if rider is in trouble and indicates if it is safe to take a turn or not. The system is very cost efficient and provides safety and security for riders of bicycle and other low-end vehicles.
