1. Project Title
Provide a short descriptive title of your proposed research work. (Not more than 20 words)
“Smart Helmet” to avoid major accident.
2. Project introduction
Provide a short summary of the proposed research project (within 200 words). The summary has
to be intelligible to a reader who is not a specialist in this field, using reference as appropriate
In today’s era, especially in the young generation, the craze of motorbikes is really remarkable. As
the bikers in our country are increasing, the road mishaps are also increasing day by day, due to
which many deaths occur, most of them are caused by the negligence in wearing helmet. And one
of the reasons for this accident is alcohol consumption. Even though breath analyzers are used to
detect whether the rider has consumed alcohol or not by the traffic department, it is difficult to
check each and every rider on the road. Most of the deaths will occur since the injured person is not
given proper medical attention.
In order to overcome the above-mentioned problem, we are designing an intelligent system that
prevents road accidents and detects alcohol consumption and also this will be able to detect crashes
and will be able to notify quickly the accident to a predefined number.
The alcohol sensor would be used to detect the presence of alcohol in the blood, the project can
detect whether the person is drunk or not. if found drunken then it won’t allow the bike to start. if
the person doesn’t put on the helmet in that case, the bike will not start. the project won’t allow the
bike to start if he doesn’t put the helmet on his head and also won’t allow the bike to start if he has
taken alcohol.
If after starting the bike, he drinks alcohol or tries to take out the helmet then the system will
audio-visual indication in the form of a buzzer and 10 mm LED.
Here in this project first step is to identify whether the helmet is worn or not. If the helmet is worn
then the ignition will start otherwise it remains off. For this, the Helmet press button is used. The
second step is alcohol detection. An alcohol sensor is used as a breath analyzer which detects the
presence of alcohol in the rider’s breath and if it exceeds the permissible limit ignition cannot start.
MQ-3 sensor is used for this purpose. When these two conditions are satisfied then only ignition
starts. The third main issue is accidents and late medical help. If the rider has met with an accident,
he may not receive medical help instantly, which is one of the main reasons for death. Every
second people die due to delays in medical help. To detect the accident, we are going to use a
Magnetic Sensor and as soon as an accident would 1 be detected the message will be sent to the
family members so that they can take care of their family members.
The aim of this project is to make à protection system in a helmet for the safety of bike riders.

4. Project outcomes
Discuss the significance and expected outcomes of your proposed research (within 300 words)
Nowadays, most cases of accidents are caused by motorbikes. The severity of those accidents is
increased because of the absence of helmets or by the usage of alcoholic drinks. In our project, we
have a tendency to develop an electronic intelligent helmet system that efficiently checks the
wearing of helmets and drunken driving. By implementing this system, a safe 2-wheeler journey is
possible which would decrease the head injuries throughout accidents caused by the absence of a
helmet and additionally reduce the accident rate due to drunken driving.
The designed system is highly useful to avoid accidents which happen around the night time. It
provides more than 70% safety for two-wheelers. It is a fact that the implementation of the system
will increase the cost of vehicles but it is better to have some percent safety rather than having no
percentage of safety. This system could be further enhanced with future technologies to provide
further safety and security to vehicle systems.
