Development of a remote road traffic accidents tracking and reporting system for Kayoola buses
(NM-AIST, 2023-08) Maniranzi, Mireille
Motor vehicles continue to improve in safety each year, resulting in a decline in fatality rates. However, car crashes remain a significant concern for the automotive industry as the goal is to eliminate accidents altogether. Unfortunately, effective strategies for managing road traffic accidents are not frequently implemented by transport companies. The use of digital or paper forms for manual accident reporting leads to the loss or inaccurate and untimely reporting of valuable information regarding these accidents. To address this issue, this project proposed to develop a remote road traffic accidents tracking and reporting system catered to the transport industry. By integrating various components such as a gyroscope for tilt detection, a load cell for impact force measurement, a web application serving as a centralized reporting platform, a GSM module enabling SMS alerts, an SD card for report backup, and an Arduino Nano 33 IoT for overall system control, a comprehensive solution has been achieved. This system enables real-time accident detection, and immediate transmission of alerts. Ultimately, the project endeavors to enhance the safety and efficiency of the transport industry by delivering a reliable and highly effective road traffic accidents tracking and reporting system for informed decision making.
