Abstract
 The rapid growth of technology and infrastructure has made
our lives easier. The advent of technology has also increased
the traffic hazards and the road accidents take place frequently
which causes huge loss of life and property because of the poor
emergency facilities.
 Our project will provide an optimum solution to this draw
back.
 When vehicle meets with an accident immediately Vibration
sensor will detect the signal and sends it Microcontroller.
 Microcontroller find the location coordinates of accident spot
using GPS and sends the alert message including geographic
allocation coordinates through the GSM Module to rescue unit.

Abstract (cont..)
 So, the rescue team in the ambulance can immediately trace the
location by putting geographical location coordinates in Google
earth application or any other Geographic location finder
application.
 After conforming the location of accident spot the ambulance
unit will starts its rescue operation.
 In the case of fire during the accident the fire sensor in the
vehicle will detect the fire and the alert message will sends to
the fire station for rescue.
 This system also sends the information to the traffic control
unit in the path of ambulance and helps ambulance to reach
hospital in minimum time.

Introduction
• Automobile has a great importance in our daily life
• But it can also bring disaster to us and even can kill us through
accidents.
• However, many lives could have been saved if the emergency
service could get the crash information in time,
• As such, efficient intelligent accident detection with an
automatic alert to the emergency service with the accident
location is a prime need to save the precious human life.
• The purpose of the project is to find the vehicle where it is and
locate the vehicle by means of sending a message using a
system which is placed inside of vehicle system

12/05/2019 5
Objective
 One of the most important is to detect the vehicle accident and
transmit the location of the accident to the rescue team, so will
get the exact location by the geographical coordinates
transmitted via message with the help of map.
 Secondly to minimize the delay of ambulance to save the
injured

12/05/2019 6
Scope Of The Project
 To design a controller that can control all the works in the
system. The vibration sensor senses the vibration level and
send data to microcontroller and can receive the GPS data,
from satellite, display it at LCD and do transmit / receive to
GSM module
 To analyse the data from GPS receiver which can get the time,
longitude, latitude, date and speed of the receiver. The data will
be display at LCD Display
 The last scope of this project is to trace the location of the
accident using GSM and GPS.

3 GPS M. S. Amin, •This project tried to help the drivers
ACCELEROMETER- M. B. I. Reaz because during an accident the driver
BASED ACCIDENT may not be in a physical condition to

• So, they proposed system utilizing the
car air bag sensor and accelerometer,
GPS to locate the place of accident and
GSM to send the accident location to
the nearest emergency centre.

5 AUTHENTICATION Jessen Joseph Leo, •This system consists of three
AND ACCIDENT R.Monisha modules:
INTIMATION •(1) SMS Ignition Module
SYSTEM •(2) Malfunction Module
•(3) Accident Alert Module
6 AUTOMATIC Chris Thompson, •It senses when traffic accidents
TRAFFIC ACCIDENT Hamilton A. Turner occur and immediately notify

NOTIFICATION WITH •These in-vehicle systems,
SMARTPHONE describes how Smartphones can
automatically detect traffic
accidents using accelerometers
and acoustic data, immediately
notify a central emergency
dispatch server after an accident.

Existing System
 Nowadays, as the population is increasing day by day the
number of vehicles is also increased and this has raised
incidents in number of accidents
 Due to increase in accidents loss of life is there due to the delay
in reaching of rescue team to area where accident has occurred
 Currently there is no technology for efficient accident
detection.
 there is not a single system today in vehicle which can detect
the accident automatically and notify the nearby hospital about
it.

12/05/2019 11
Existing System (cont..)
 As it is done manually there is loss of life in golden hours
 The accident victim is dependent on the mercy of others to rush
him to hospital
 In addition to this there is delay in the rescue team to reaching
the accident location due to the traffic congestion between
accident location and destination which increases the chances
of the death of victim.

12/05/2019 12
Existing System (cont..)
Disadvantage

• We found that many existing systems are not up to the mark to

provide quick emergency help to the accident victims. At
present criteria, we cannot detect where the accident has
occurred and hence no information related to it, leading to the
death of an individual.

12/05/2019 13
Proposed System
 To overcome the drawback of existing system we will
implement the new system in which there is an automatic
detection of accident.
 A sensor, GPS, GSM unit fitted in the vehicle detects the
accident and sends the accident location to a main server unit
which houses the database of all the nearby hospitals.
 The accident is detected by the sensors when the values of the
sensors reach above the set threshold values.
 The alert message is sent to the nearby ambulance rescue unit,
the one whose driver is free accepts the request on his mobile
device and with the available location on his device he goes to
the accident spot choosing the shortest path
12/05/2019 14
Proposed System (cont..)
 The ambulance is guided to the location by the GPS location
from server through mobile device
 An ambulance is rushed to the accident spot which carries the
patient to the hospital.
 This will minimize the time required by the rescue unit and
ambulance to reach the accident location and hospital.

12/05/2019 15
Proposed System (cont..)
Advantage

• This system can detect the location of accident spot

automatically & accurately, and realizing the automation of
information transmission
• it will save the people form wasting their time in searching of
location and lives of the victims of accident.

Block diagram description
 Arduino Mega is used as main microcontroller, this system is
made for accident alert, the whole system is to be implemented
in the vehicle itself.
 when the accident happens, the vibration or fire or water is
sensed and is sent to an Arduino microcontroller, at the same
time, with GPS the latitude and longitude of that particular
location is obtained, and with that the exact location of the
accident site is determined.
 If in case there is a rollover of the car, the angle of the rolls
over is detected by the accelerometer and it is given as the
input to the controller for further processing.

12/05/2019 20
Block diagram description (Cont..)
 GSM module is interfaced with microcontroller.
 So that, when accident happens, the SMS will be sending
automatically to the particular numbers which would be
entered in the database.
 An LCD display is used at the output section to display the
status of the GSM and GPS.
 The LCD will display the shock intensity and the validity of
sending message.
 All the components are interfaced precisely so that the
accident detection and alert message sending are fully
automated, so that the warning time is reduced significantly

12/05/2019 21
Conclusion
 This project provides the design which has the advantages of
low cost, portability, small size and easy expansibility.
 The platform of the system is along with Vibration sensor,
Flame sensor, Rain sensor, Accelerometer, GPS and GSM,
interfacing which shortens the SMS time to a large extent and
locates the site of accident accurately.
 The system will automatically update every information in
ThingSpeak Cloud, where the authorised user can retrieve the
information.
 This system can overcome the problems of lack of automated
system for accident identification and information system.
 It helps not only in finding the location of vehicle but also it is
helpful in saving the lives of victims by finding where an
accident has happened for the purpose of accident detection.
