Abstract

Vehicle accidents are major concern today in traffic management systems which result in an increasing number of deaths. India is currently in top position in road accidents around the globe. This leads to a huge number in future with growing population and other causes e.g. bad road conditions, reckless driving, delay in medical help, etc. To overcome these, a proper accident detection and notification system is required. Here comes our android app based on IoT sensors (Accelerometer, Gyroscope) of smartphones used in our daily lives. The app automatically detects an accident from sensory data and sends notification to emergency numbers so that victims receive immediate medical assistance. The app covers most of the solutions in this regard in post-accident scenarios, such as accident detection, sending notifications, and a few which are applicable for alerting people about accidents and handling traffic congestion scenarios.Later includes warning drivers while entering an accident-prone zone, suggesting an alternate route to avoid congestion in the accident occurrence area, etc. The performance is analyzed by delay time, false alarm rates and it outperforms the existing systems in terms of different features. Thus, it is user-friendly, reliable, and cost effective.
