Android Accident Detection & Alert System

This document proposes an Android-based accident detection and alert system. The system uses sensors and a sound meter to automatically detect accidents, then uses GPS and GSM to send alerts to nearby hospitals and police with location coordinates. This allows for faster response times to accidents to reduce risks of death. The system has five modules - User, Admin, Ambulance, Hospital, and Police - to coordinate response between relevant parties. It aims to address the large number of annual road accident deaths globally by streamlining rescue operations.

Android Accident Detection & Alert System

1) Background/ Problem Statement

Along with increasing demands for automobiles, a drastic increase


can be seen in road accidents. As per data given by the WHO
(https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/road-traffic-injuries)
1.35 million people die every year due to road accidents. This number is
sufficient enough to show the global crises of road safety & creates a need
to improve the road safety facilities & rescue operation system.

In most cases when a road accident occurs, the rescue team or the
police authorities are not informed in time. Furthermore, the delay caused
by the rescue team in reaching the accident site & the heavy traffic
congestion in between the accident location and the hospital facilities
increases the risk of death for the victim. To overcome this issue, we have
come up with this accident detection system which will help the victims get
rescued well in time and reduce the risk of death caused by road accidents.
The system includes a sensor, sound meter, GPS and GSM module. The
sensors will detect the accident & sound meters will trigger an alarm. The
GPS will track the location coordinates and the GSM will send an alert
notification to the nearby hospital & police authorities. Thus, this system
will send an instant alert to the nearby rescue team & hospital facility to
notify them of the accident occurred for them to take immediate actions.

2) Working of the Project


This Application aids in having a better coordination and keeps all the
concerned bodies and authorities informed and alerts them quickly which also
saves time in rescuing an accident patient. When a person meets an accident,
he is usually not in a condition to interact with an application on his phone and
ask for help. In such situation Accident is detected automatically in user app
based on sound reading and sensor reading, user app continuously senses for
such accidents. App then quickly assigns and sends notification to the nearby
Ambulance, nearby hospital and also the police informing in case of an
accident detected. Ambulance then keep updating of the status of patient
whether dropped to the hospital. Hospital can also update status if admitted to
the hospital from their app. This helps in keeping the assigned hospital
prepared and informed. Also, the User details are shared with hospital and
police which helps hospital to see the medical records of the patient and police
gets to see required details of the user in an accident.
3) Advantages
 Every concerned body involved in an accident is included in this
system to keep them notified and get the required information on
their phone through the application thus speeding the process of
rescuing the patient.

 Accident is notified automatically by the application. Also, user is


given the option to stop the alert before being sent by app in case
of a false alarm in notification bar.

 All the major systems like hospital, ambulance, users and accident
reports can be monitored by Admin.

4) System Description
The system comprises of 5 major modules with their sub-modules as
follows:

1. User:
 Register: User can register using personal details.
 Login: User can login in his personal account email id and
password.
 Profile: User can edit their profile as well as add Emergency
Contacts.
 Home: User will be able to see the Sensor readings i.e., Sound
Meter and Accelerometer readings. User can also stop/start the
detection system.
 Background: The system in the background will be continuously
monitoring the Sound decibel value and accelerometer for any
Accident type impacts. If it finds the App Notifies the User to
verify if it’s a false alarm, if no action is done in 5 secs the
Ambulance is assigned & notifies Hospital, Ambulance and Police
about the accident with the location & User details.
 History: History of Accident detections & details.
 Notifications: User will be notified if system detects an Accident.

2. Admin:
 Login: Admin can login his account using id and password.
 Manage Hospital: Admin is the only person who can manage
Hospital data and provide credentials to them.
 Manage Ambulance: Admin can manage Ambulance data and
provide credentials to them. Ambulances are also mentioned if
they work independently or are owned by Hospitals.
 View Users: View all the Users registered in this system.
 View Accidents: View all the Accidents and details about it, can be
filtered date wise.

3. Ambulance:
 Login: Ambulance driver can login his account using id and
password.
 Home: The driver can see the current accident location along with
the User details, the driver can directly navigate through Google
Maps. The Driver can update the status whether he has
picked/dropped the User.
 Notifications: The driver will get a notification if it is assigned a
Pickup.

4. Hospital:
 Login: Hospital User can login his account using id and password.
 Home: The User can see the current accident location assigned to
his Hospital if any. Hospital can also update the status whether
the user has been admitted in the Hospital.
 View Accidents: List of all the Accidents and details about it
assigned to his Hospital.
 Manage Ambulance: Hospital can also manage their owned
Ambulances.
 Notifications: The Hospital will get a notification if it is assigned a
Pickup.
5. Police:
 Login: Police can login his account using id and password.
 Home: Police is able to see to Today’s accident specifically or filter
date wise to see previous ones.
 Notifications: Police will get a notification if it is assigned a Pickup.
5) Project Life Cycle

The waterfall model is a classical model used in system development life


cycle to create a system with a linear and sequential approach. It is termed as
waterfall because the model develops systematically from one phase to
another in downward fashion. The waterfall approach does not define the
process to go back to the previous phase to handle changes in requirement.
The waterfall approach is the earliest approach that was used for software
development
6) System Requirement

I. Hardware Requirement

i. Laptop or PC
 I3 processor system or higher
 4 GB RAM or higher
 100 GB ROM or higher

ii. Android Phone (6.0 and above)

II. Software Requirement

iii. Laptop or PC
 Windows 7 or higher
 Android Studio
7) Limitation/Disadvantages

 There can be case of false alarm if user fails to stop the false alarm
in time which is not handled by this system.
 Internet is required for sending accident detection report from
user app. If there is no active internet then accident report
sending fails.

8) Application – This system has great scope which can be implemented


on a large scale by medical teams and police authorities together to
address and handle accident cases more efficiently.
