Traditional and commonly used key locks available in the bikes are well known to the thieves and thus it can be easily unlocked by the professional thieves. The safety of the rider is also a matter of great concern. To overcome these issues a system is required that can help achieve the security of the vehicle and safety of the rider. An intelligent two wheeler ignition system with an additional intelligent helmet for the safety of the rider is proposed. The system ensures the safety of the vehicle and the rider both at the same time. The system requires firstly to authenticate the rider from the preloaded fingerprints from the database of the microcontrollers also making it compulsory for the rider to wear the helmet as per the government guidelines. The system consist of alcohol sensor. Microcontroller ATmega328 is used for the performing the efficient working of system. RF module performing the communication part along with the help of IR sensor. Keywords: Alcohol sensor, Microcontroller, IR sensor, RF module, GPS, GSM. I. INTRODUCTION From past till the present scenario, safety and security remains an issue of utmost importance whether it is related to human life or the materialistic things. Despite tall claims made by law-enforcement agencies about their success in controlling automobile thefts, statistics reveal that as many as 1.65 lakh vehicles were stolen in a single year--2013. Uttar Pradesh achieved the dubious distinction of leading the states with the highest number of vehicle theft cases. The alarming increase in the number of two wheeler road accidents has also been a matter of great concern globally because two wheeler users are directly exposed and come in direct contact with the impacting vehicle or obstacle during a collision resulting in severe injuries and fatality. Every day as many as 140,000 people are injured on the world’s roads; more than 3000 die and some 15,000 are disabled for life. The main reason behind the accidents being the carelessness of the riders or rash driving of the rider or riding vehicle when high on alcohol. Our project aims at designing a system that ensures not only the security of the vehicle but also the safety of its rider. This system uses several intelligent modules which provide this complete security. The safety of the bike is enhanced by adding a new module with the conventional key lock system which is the fingerprint identification system which allows only the authorized rider to get access of the bike. The other module is of the smart helmet which makes several checks depending on which it provides ignition to the rider. This module makes a check whether the rider has consumed alcohol or not and whether the rider is wearing a helmet or not. If the rider has not consumed alcohol and wearing helmet the rider get the ignition but if the required conditions are not met the rider fails to get the ignition. II. LITERATURE SURVEY Achint Agarwal etal [13] the authors have considered security as one of the most important aspects & have laid mphasis on the security of the two wheeler & the rider as well. A prototype system is being proposed by the authors which is providing more security to two-wheeler systems with the help of biometrics system. The main focus while developing the bike anti-theft system was to integrate the above features equally. The most significant feature is the vehicle security from theft and it has been ensured by providing two layers of anti-theft protection. First the entry to the vehicle is limited only to the authorized persons are stored into the database beforehand and at the time of entry to the vehicle, scanned fingerprints are being cross checked with the database. The second layer of protection is produced by GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) technology. It sends SMS (Short Message services) to the owner in case of misuse of bike. If anybody tries to steal the bike, the location of the vehicle is described by GPS tracker. GPS interfacing with the whole system is done such that if someone tries to steal the vehicle then the owner can detect the exact location of the vehicle by the message. The system also consist of a rider safety system that ensures that the rider cannot start the vehicle if he is drunk or not wearing a helmet.
