Road accidents are dreaded incidents, which are known to take hundreds of lives in a year in Nepal itself. People lose their lives because the help is not provided to them as soon as possible. If the reporting is automated then the lives of those that met with an accident can be saved. Thus, we propose this solution, where the helmet itself initiates a communication to report the accident using the person’s phone. The helmet has vibration sensors that are cheap yet effective and productive. As the vibration changes, the Arduino reads it and send the reading to the phone via Bluetooth module. Therefore, when the rider crashes, the spike in the sensor initiates the Bluetooth module, that triggers the application on a rider’s phone to send an alert to nearby hospitals or the selected SOS number. After testing this project, we found out that the location with the SOS message is sent automatically to the SOS number when there is a spike in the sensor value. Thus, the location is precise. The solution proposed in this project does not affect the status quo by trying to modify the motorcycle itself. In Nepal, the main means of transport is either by public bus or by motorcycle. This project can be useful to those people who tend to transport by motorcycle and want an extra safety feature that is sure to notify personnel as soon as they meet with an accident.
