Secured Vehicle Access System with Enhanced Accident Detection and Signboard Recognition

  Mr.Sathish kumar V,  Mrs.Aarthy S. T

In critical situations many vehicles face accidents, due to this lot of persons lose their lives. Some can be saved if the victim is given medical care as soon as possible. But this has not been the case in real time since no information is provided to rescue sectors regarding the location if accident occurs. This paper provides an optimum solution to the drawback shown above. This system identifies the accident and intimates the information to the emergency care unit. If the accident is diminutive, then the victim needs to press the emergency switch so that the emergency care unit will skip the rescue process. The impact of the accident is detected using the vibration sensor. Here the image comparison technique is introduced to protect vehicle from theft. Speed limiters on the roads have become very common nowadays due to the increase in the speed of the vehicles. These speed limiters that are meant to reduce accidents sometimes act as a cause for it. Especially at night, speeding vehicles tend to overturn and heavy vehicles with loads find it difficult to stop at speed breakers. This even leads to traffic jam at such places. This paper proposes a solution to these problems by attaching an automated speed reduction unit on the vehicles. These units reduce the speed of the vehicle at critical junctions automatically without the consent of the driver. The RF transmitter is placed at sign Boards along the roads and the RF receiver in vehicle communicates with the transmitter and helps in reducing the speed of the vehicle. Alcohol sensor is used to detect whether the driver is drunk or not. If it senses the consumption of alcohol then it denies the ignition of vehicle. Temperature sensor is used to measure the temperature of the engine and displays it in the mounted LCD display. Heartbeat sensor is used to monitor the heartbeat of the driver, if the heart beat becomes abnormal, then the vehicle speed is reduced and an alert message is sent to the emergency unit via the GSM module, and the location of the vehicle is shared with the help of GPS module mounted alongside. GAS sensor is used to monitor the emission level in the vehicle which helps in avoiding air pollution.
