Design and Finite Element Analysis of IoT based Smart Helmet

Abstract

As mentioned in the global two-wheeler market report, the two-wheeler market is projected to surpass $ 125 billion by 2024. According to WHO statistics, approximately 1.35 million people die each year as a result of road traffic crashes. And more than half of those are pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists. Correct helmet use can lead to a 42 percent reduction in risk of fatal injuries and a 69 percent reduction in the risk of head injuries. These are concerning statistics. These growing numbers call forth new and upcoming technological advancements concerning the safety of the users. The main reason behind coming up with this smart helmet is the very issue of safety. The main objective of the project is to build a smart system which is integrated with sensors and modules for the safety of the user. While working on improving the safety of riders, it was ensured that its aesthetics and ergonomics are not compromised.
