Accidents are increasing day by day and there is no part in this world where an accident does not occur. There should be a system which can stop occurrence of accidents, but successfully stopping accidents is very difficult because how much ever a person tries to drive safely and avoid danger, somehow he falls into the hands of danger. So if we can’t stop accidents we should now concentrate on the post-accident scenario. A timely help to an accident victim can save his life. So now the next step would be to give an alert on the occurrence of an accident. This is what our project is about. A smart helmet is a special idea which makes motorcycle driving safer than before. This is implemented using Arduino. Security in travel is primary concern for everyone. We place a accelerometer on helmet to indicate the accident. This is given to microcontroller which converts the same as alert messages and using GSM and GPS sends message to ambulance, relative and police department to attend the accident victims. To provide required comfort level to the rider, an automatic cooling system is placed in the helmet and to ensure the Helmet Authentication a sensor is placed inside the helmet which makes sure that rider can start the bike only when he wears the helmet.
