Smart Traffic Accident Monitoring System

Abstract

A system which detects the occurrence of accidents and informs the respective units responsible is designed. When a vehicle meets an accident then the sensors installed in the vehicle detect the accident and inform the medical unit, police control as well as family members by sending an alert message to the fire station (in case if the vehicle catches fire during the accident). To avoid accidents due to collision in winters because of FOG, ultrasonic sensors to detect the nearby objects and produce sound if it gets too close are used. Vibration sensor installed will detect the changes in vibration and if it is above threshold which means an accident occurred and it will notify the respective units. The alert message contains accident location coordinates obtained by the GPS module which was sent to respective units through the GSM module. Designed system is fully automated therefore it would get the exact location coordinates of the accident spot.
