Accident Detection Using Raspberry Pi

Abstract

Abstract: It is observed that, the major hindrance on road is due to heavy traffic flow during peak hours especially when people commute to work. The total number of vehicles or objects exceeds its capacity by causing a blockage for emergency vehicles such as fire fighter and rescue vehicles, furthermore wastage of fuels adds more to the environmental pollution which is not adoptable for a country’s economic growth. In order to develop an efficient, reliable, cleaner and safer mode of transportation,it is necessary to make the road transportation system automated as much as pos- sible.To track the vehicle, we need to send the message to GSM device, so that it gets activated. It also gets activated by detecting the accident on the vibration sensor connected to the raspberry pi controller. Once the GSM is activated it receives the last latitude and longitude position value and send message to the emergency serverwhich is predefined in the program. The process of image processing it detect the face of person and by using alarm it give the indication of that person
