Abstract – Smart helmet is a device that provides the
features to the riders necessary to get the riders in their
comfort zone while travelling on their bike and also
provide ample amount of safety to protect them in the
case of accidents. The main feature of the smart helmet is
the custom built intercom set that helps in getting the
riders connected with their cell phones without
interrupting their journey and get fast access to the
features like calling , navigation and GOOGLE engine to
surf music. The Smart Helmet also provides a feature to
give the riders adequate amount of visibility during their
ride at night .Also provides safety feature of getting the
alcohol detection unit to detect the alcohol content in the
rider.
1 INTRODUCTION
The use of technology is indulged everywhere
nowadays in the world to ease the way of living our lives.
The use of technology in different sectors of department
has already started revolutionizing the world, so why not
to use the technology to enhance the world of
motorcyclists. According to the Global Status report, one
fourth of the people dying every year are motorcyclists.
One of the major reasons of this is the lack of visibility of
the riders on the road and due to the usage of mobile
phone while riding.
The IOT has already made the communication
between the devices very easy and robust. The IOT has
already taken part in changing the world of home
ecosystem, Grid systems, and even changing the whole
scenario of the cities by building a smart city eco system.
The IOT helps in gathering the large amount of data in real
time and helps in establishing the connection between the
devices in hassle free manner with wireless
communication methodology.
1.1 LITERATURE SURVEY
A lot of companies are there that are working on
the smart helmet system. Smart helmets are very much
user friendly in nature along with being autonomous that
helps in coordination of rider with the devices in a friendly
manner. The inner shell of the smart helmets becomes
tough and rigid during the accidental situations and hence
there is need to send the emergency message to the
parents, friends and close ones to the rider. The smart
helmet also provides various features like monitoring the
live traffic , analyzing the rider ‘s health situation,
monitoring the heart rate and many other.
Now to increase the use of smart helmet in the future
there is need of increasing the production quality and
reduce the per helmet cost of the system.
