Implementation of Vehicle Accident Detection and Reporting System

The Vehicle Accident Detection and Reporting System was successfully developed by integrating Arduino Uno, MEMS accelerometer, GPS, and GSM technologies. The system effectively detects accident conditions, identifies the direction of impact, obtains the accident location, and automatically transmits the relevant information through SMS to predefined emergency contacts. The LCD and buzzer provide local status and warning indications, enabling effective monitoring of the system. The experimental implementation demonstrates that the proposed system provides a practical and efficient approach for reducing delays in accident reporting and improving emergency response. The developed prototype can serve as a foundation for future intelligent vehicle safety systems with enhanced communication, IoT connectivity, and automated emergency-response capabilities.
