More Information
Summary:Intelligent Safety Helmet for Motorcyclist is a project undertaken to increase the rate of road safety among motorcyclists. There are many countries enforcing regulations to wear a helmet while riding. India is an example. The idea is obtained after knowing that the increasing number of fatal road accidents over the years is cause for concern among motorcyclists. This project is designed to introduce automatic autonomous headlight technology for the safety of motorcyclist. Here, we focus on intelligent headlamps that react according to the rider's facial movement. It makes use of accelerometer and other sensors to direct small electric motors built into the headlight casing to turn the headlights accordingly.
