Abstract

Abstract:
Innovative technology approaches the Arduino UNO serves as the central controller, processing data from the MPU 6050 accelerometer and gyroscope to detect sudden impacts or collisions. A pumping motor is triggered to deploy an airbag mechanism whenever critical acceleration thresholds are exceeded. Water submersion is detected using a pressure sensor, allowing the system to automatically transmit distress signals for timely rescue. Driver drowsiness is mitigated through an eye blink sensor that monitors blink frequency, thereby reducing sleep-related accidents. RF encoder and decoder modules secure ignition control, preventing unauthorized vehicle access. The engine ignition system is simulated by a gear DC motor governed by relay outputs from the Arduino. An LCD module provides real-time status and alert notifications, keeping the driver informed. The GSM module enables emergency communication, sending SMS alerts to user-defined contacts. GPS integration ensures precise location tracking, facilitating prompt assistance from rescue services. Upon detecting an accident, the system automatically relays the vehicle’s coordinates to both the user and ambulance services. An efficient Arduino-based control algorithm processes sensor inputs to generate timely alerts. A user-friendly LCD interface displays
sensor readings and operational statuses in real time. The combined GSM and GPS modules ensure immediate and accurate emergency reporting. Security is further reinforced by the RF-based key authentication, minimizing theft and unauthorized usage. Ultimately, this system showcases how affordable, integrated electronics can significantly enhance vehicle safety and driver security
