An Intelligent helmet system using IoT and Raspberry Pi

Abstract

If a motorcyclist is involved in a high-speed collision without wearing a helmet, the force is extremely severe and can lead to death. Wearing a seat belt can reduce the accident impact and can save a life. There are several countries that impose a law requiring the operator of the motorcycle to wear a helmet while riding on their bike, an example is Malaysia. This paper is all about providing a solution to the bikers by connecting helmet and ignition switch electronically. The helmet is equipped with a sensor which can sense whether the person is with helmet or not. The helmet and bike relate to a wireless system, whenever the rider removes the helmet a signal is send to the receives at the bike ignition and is switched OFF and it is vice versa.
