FUTURISTIC SMART RIDING HELMET

Abstract

The intention of this paper is to explain about the concept of a smart helmet which will perform various functions in order to ensure the safety of the rider. The helmet has three sensors such as MQ-3 alcohol sensor which senses the alcohol of the rider and sends SMS. Other sensors like accelerometer sense sudden movement of the helmet in the forward direction detecting a jerk which indicates the accident and sends the SMS to the family member. The third sensor is the clip. The DC motor will only start once the clip is inserted. The simulation was carried out using Proteus software. In order to reduce the wiring, RF transmitter and receiver is used.
