 Enabling active safety system along with realtime monitoring and audio alerts in two wheelers through smart helmet systemNikita Agarwala, Nikita Arora, Goldie Gabrani and Sunil Gupta International Journal of Critical Infrastructures, 2023, vol. 19, issue 4, 367-382 Abstract: A report by the Indian Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, estimated that over 1.5 lakh lives were claimed in various accidents on Indian Roads in 2018. Over-speeding has been found as a major violation accounting for nearly 67% of the road accidents. To address this concern, authors in this paper, have proposed a methodology to make the helmet smarter using Internet of Things (IoT). This modification in the existing smart helmet adds on to the safety of the bikers. Drivers for two wheeled automobiles are cautioned about their speed through audio alerts. These alerts are in accordance with one's speed and location and updated in real time. To implement this technology in the existing helmets, Bluetooth technology was deployed, and the communication channel was realised through various IoT protocols such as XMPP and MQTT. The suggested protocols have been analysed in the deployed communication channel of the proposed smart helmet for their performance. Further, ubiquitous connectivity is also an important feature of the proposed smart helmet. Keywords: accident avoidance; two wheelers; smart helmet; sensors; active safety system; IoT.
