Abstract:
According to statistics” road to safety” [1], in a highly populated country like India, the usage of vehicles is rapidly increasing and at the same time people lose their lives because of accidents and poor emergency facilities. Hence, the value of human life is ignored. These lives could have been saved if medical facilities were provided at the right time and if drunk drivers were prohibited from driving. As fuel and vehicle have become even more dearer there is an increasing number of fuel thefts taking place. This project proposes a system which can be installed in any car at a minimal cost, acting as a solution to the mentioned drawbacks. An accelerometer sensor is used to sense the vibrations and tilt generated by the vehicle when it meets with an accident. Using this digital output via the controller an SMS is sent to preprogrammed numbers such as ambulance, police station, family member of the victim etc. indicating that an accident has occurred with a link in the SMS depicting the accident spot via Google map service provider. Alcohol sensor is used to detect alcohol in the breath of the driver, if sensed the vehicle ignition will not turn on. Antitheft system is also included for fuel wherein if theft of either is detected then there will be an SMS sent to the owner indicating a theft occurrence, along with an immediate siren so as to alert the surroundings.
