Automatic Vehicle Accident Detection Based on GSM System

Abstract

The evolution of technology has increased the rate of traffic accidents that occurs frequently causing loss of life and property. Therefore, the automatic traffic monitoring system gradually attracted the attention of researchers in improving traffic safety through the field of intelligent transport systems. In this paper, a cost-effective approach based on GSM system for automatic traffic incident detection is proposed. This paper provides an optimal solution to reduce the death rate by using the vibration sensor and GSM system; the implementation system is based on hardware (circuits) and software to build a graphical user interface (GUI) using LabView TM to process the data. Sensors are installed into the vehicles on each side of the vehicle. An SMS will be sent to the user after the accident. This system will assist in search and rescue vehicle involved in the accident.
