Abstract
This study presents the design and implementation of a smart helmet equipped with advanced sensor technology to enhance the safety of motorcycle riders. The smart helmet integrates various sensors including the MQ3 gas sensor for detecting harmful gases, vibration sensor for impact detection, and GPS Neo6m module for location tracking. Additionally, it incorporates an Arduino microcontroller for data processing and control, a Namo buzzer for audible alerts, an LED bulb for visual warnings, and a SIM800L module for real-time communication. The MQ3 sensor continuously monitors for detecting alcohol levels in the rider’s vicinity. The vibration sensor is designed to detect abrupt impacts or collisions, prompting instant alerts to notify nearby vehicles or emergency services. Additionally, the GPS module facilitates accurate location tracking, ensuring swift responses during accidents or emergencies. The Arduino microcontroller processes the sensor data and coordinates the functionality of the helmet’s safety features. Upon detecting potential dangers, the buzzer emits audible alerts, while the LED bulb provides visual warnings to the rider. Furthermore, the SIM800L module facilitates communication by sending SMS alerts to pre-defined contacts or transmitting location data to emergency responders. The integration of these components into a single smart helmet offers comprehensive safety features, providing riders with enhanced protection against accidents, environmental hazards, and emergencies. The proposed system not only promotes rider safety but also contributes to the advancement of wearable technology for improved road safety in the motorcycle community.
