5.helmet Detection For Traffic Rules Using Image Processing With Raspberry Pi
Abstract
Intelligent System for Helmet Detection using Raspberry Pi ensures helmet possession by a
motorcyclist at all times by capturing a snapshot of the rider’s helmet using Pi Camera and
confirming object detection by Haar cascading technique. The main idea behind the project is to
reduce road fatalities among motorcyclists. Due to ignorance of riders for the Helmet compulsion
law, every motorcyclist's safety has been compromised. Intelligent System for Helmet Detection
solves this problem by leaving the rider no choice as the engine of the vehicle is operated
through a dc motor which is only closed after detection of the rider's helmet.
Each year there are 1.4 million traumatic brain injuries (TBI’s) in the INDIA. About 300,000 of
these individuals suffer sports related brain injuries annually. Up to 90,000 of the people having
experienced a traumatic brain injury have long-term or lifelong disabilities. About $76.5 billion
dollars is spent in treatment related to these injuries. More than 50,000 individuals die from TBI.
This proposal aims at the security and safety of motorcyclist against road accident while also
providing them with a luxurious comfortable two wheeler experience. Each smart vehicle has
built-in circuit and various functions. The circuit of each vehicle is designed in such a manner
that the bike won't start unless the rider wears the helmet .The camera installed on the bike will
capture the rider wearing the helmet or not. If the rider image is captured without wearing the
helmet, mail will be sent automatically to the predefined mail so that immediate action can be
taken.
