Title: GPS and GSM based error free accident identification and information system.

Abstract This project is designed to inform about an accident that is occurred to a vehicle to family members of the traveling person. This project uses a piezo-electric sensor which can detect the abrupt vibration when accident is occurred. This sends a signal to microcontroller. This detection and messaging system is composed of a GPS receiver, microcontroller and a GSM modem. GPS receiver gets the location information from satellites in the form of latitude and longitude. The microcontroller processes this information and this processed information is sent to the user/owner using GSM modem. A GSM modem is interfaced to the MCU. The GSM modem sends an SMS to the predefined mobile number and inform about this accident. This enables it to monitor the accident situation and it can immediately alert the police/ambulance service with the location of accident. This project can be divided into two main parts which are hardware and software development. The hardware development includes the GPS and the microcontroller wiring connection and its integration with the GSM modulo. The software development include develop the microcontroller source code, Proteus simulation software, GSM message command (AT command), the NMEA protocol command. This project deals with an SMS (Short Message Service) enabled vehicle tracking system. The heart of this project lies with the use of a GPS + GSM modem which is installed in the vehicle and is in charge of tracking the vehicle and sending the coordinates to the GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) modem. The GSM modem in the control center receives the coordinates via SMS and updates the main database which contains all the where abouts of all the vehicles at specified times. The information is uploaded in a website where the vehicles position can be located in a map with the aid of the Google Maps application. This thesis explores the foundation of GPS, GSM, and all the software related in the project; and the use of their concepts to produce a vehicle tracking system which is cheaper and more effective than most commercial car tracking features in the market today

INTRODUCTION Nowadays accidents occur in all the places. Because of high speeding of vehicle. The main objective of the system is to provide security for the vehicle user and also detects the accident if occurred and informs the respective authority through wireless technologies. If any accident occurs in highway or any other place. The accident information system will get activated and message will be transmitted to respective authority (like ambulance, police, owner etc.)Statistical report says that the accident occur due to the following reasons; drunk driver not using the seat belt properly. This system will check all these things before the vehicle starts. This automatic accident detection system will overcome the above mentioned problems in an effective way. Present system checks only the seat belt condition and lacks much security constrains. According to this system, whenever a person sits in driver seat of the vehicle, the system checks for the following parameters with the driver. The Alcohol sensor, which checks if the person has consumed alcohol or not. The eye sensor makes sure that the person in driver seat does not falls asleep. In case of any accident, the vibration in vibration sensor increases beyond the limit and information is sent to GSM module. The GSM can send message to respective authority. Thus this system ensures the life security. Overview of the system frame work: In these design process two modules were used, accident detection module and security enabling module. In information sending module GSM, GPS and vibration sensors are used. In this system, the vibration sensor, GPS and GSM is placed in the vehicle. If an accident occurred the vibration sensor senses the vibration level and if it exceeds the threshold limit, the system will consider that there is an occurrence of accident in that particular location. Then the system will activate the GPS to gather the location detail and sends the location of the vehicle through GSM to the control station. Security enabling module includes eye sensor and seat belt detector which will ensure the security condition of the driver. Nowadays the accident occurs due to a drunken driver and improper use of belt. The main cause of accident is due to the driver drowsy and tired condition, which will be noticed by the

help of eyes sensor which will not start and also informs the status of the driver to the base station along with the vehicle ID
