Automatic Accident Detection and Rescue System
The Automatic Vehicle Accident Detection and Rescue System using Arduino, GPS, GSM, Buzzer, and Switch Button is designed to detect vehicle accidents in real-time and automatically alert emergency services with the vehicle's location. The system aims to reduce the time taken for rescue operations, which is critical in saving lives during road accidents. The system utilizes sensors to detect a collision, upon which the Arduino microcontroller processes the data and triggers a buzzer to alert nearby individuals. Simultaneously, the GPS module retrieves the vehicle's location coordinates, and the GSM module sends an SMS containing these coordinates to predefined emergency contacts, such as hospitals or family members. A manual reset button is incorporated, allowing the driver to cancel the alert in case of a false alarm. This project offers a cost-effective and reliable solution to address delays in accident reporting and rescue operations. It enhances road safety and ensures prompt assistance to accident victims, potentially reducing fatalities caused by delayed emergency response. The system can be easily integrated into any vehicle, making it highly scalable for widespread use.
