 ABSTRACT
• In this project, I describe a helmet which is made smart using latest
IOT technologies.
• Everyday around the world a large percentage of people die from
road accident. An effective approach is made to solve the problem
by using smart helmet band.
• Smart helmet band is an idea which make motorcycle driving
safer than before.
• The working of this smart helmet band is very simple, pressure
sensor is placed inside the helmet, which will detect whether the
rider has worn the helmet or not, if not then the bike will not start.
• Smart helmet band provides help in case of accident by using GPS
technology.
 INTRODUCTION
• The thought of developing this project comes to do some good
things towards the society. Day by day the two wheeler
accidents are increasing and leads to loss of many lives.
• If accidents are one issue, lack of treatment in proper time is
another reason for deaths. In such situation, informing to
ambulance or family members through mobile to rescue him
for an extent.
• To trace out the location where exactly accident occur using
GPS module, and gives to microcontroller.

 WORKING
• In this system ESP8266 wifi is used. When the system is switched on, LED
will be ON indicating that power is supplied to the circuit.
• The accelerometer is placed in the helmet such that it detects tilts of the
helmet. When the rider crashes, the helmet hits the ground and the
accelerometer detects the tilts that are created when the helmet hits the
ground and then the microcontroller detect the accident occurrence and it
will send information about the accident and location of accident using
GPS modules.
• Alcohol sensor sense the alcoholic content whether the rider drunken or not,
if he drunken bike will not start showing as alcohol detected on android app.
• Use of pressure sensor, gives the whether the rider wear the helmet or not. If
he not wears the helmet again bike will not start and intimate to rider to
wear the helmet.
 COMPONENTS USED

Hardware
• ESP8266 Wifi Module
• Pressure
• Alcohol
• Accelerometer
• GPS
• Driver Circuit
• DC Motor
 
Software
• IDE
• Embedded C
 ADVANTAGES

• The system will ensure that the motorbike will not start unless
the rider is wearing a helmet and has not consumed alcohol.
• The system will also alert the bike rider if any obstacle comes
too close while riding the bike.
• Also GSM technology is used to inform the family members
in case of an accident.
• It will help to reduce the number of road accidents which are
very frequent in a country like India where the traffic is very
high.
• It will help to create awareness about the need to wear helmet
during bike riding.
 DISADVANTAGES
• The bike will not start unless we wear the helmet.
• Miss handling of the helmet may cause unnecessarily message
alert.
 APPLICATIONS
• The system will ensure that the motorbike will not start unless the
rider is wearing a helmet and has not consumed alcohol. Hence
safety of person is ensured.
• Also GSM technology is used to inform the family members in
case of an accident. This project could be highly developed with
upcoming technologies to provide further more safety and security
to the vehicle systems. In future scope we can use GPS to send the
location of accident along with the message.
• The vehicle tracking system can be implemented. This will protect
the vehicle from theft. This can also be used to ensure that rider is
not misusing the bike.
• In future if all the bike manufacturing companies include this
system on each bike before the sell, accident rates will drastically
all down.
 CONCLUSION
• In this project we have successfully designed a smart
helmet band using GSM and GPS technology.
• The project made compulsory of wear helmet to start the
ignition of vehicle and while riding if any sudden change
in velocity occurs then accelerometer will monitor the
change and a short message with the location of rider will
be send to the predefined number using GSM module.
• This is a situation where we found some solution to the
problem of increased death ratio.
