Accident Detection Project Plan

The Smart Accident Detection and SOS Alert System is a low-cost solution designed by Class 10 students in India to automatically send SOS messages to emergency services upon detecting a crash. The system utilizes sensors to detect accidents, a microcontroller to process signals, and a GSM module to send alerts, optionally including GPS location. The project aims to enhance road safety, particularly in rural and highway areas, and encourages STEM innovation among students.

Smart Accident Detection and SOS Alert System

Team: Class 10 Students

Country: India

Project Overview
Every year, thousands of accidents in India happen on highways and lonely roads where immediate

help is not available. Many victims could survive if emergency services were alerted instantly.

Our idea is to build a low-cost accident detection system that sends an SOS message automatically

to nearby police stations, hospitals, and emergency contacts when a crash is detected.

Main Objectives
- Detect accidents using sensors (based on motion/impact).

- Send automatic SOS alerts via SMS.

- Optionally send GPS location.

- Make the system affordable for all vehicles.

How It Works
1. Sensors detect a crash (sudden deceleration or tilt).

2. The microcontroller (Arduino/ESP32) processes the signal.

3. If an accident is detected:

- An SMS is sent using a GSM module to emergency services.

- Optionally, a GPS module adds the location to the message.

4. A manual cancel button can stop false alarms.

Components Needed
- Arduino Uno R3 Brain of the system

- MPU6050 Sensor Detects sudden motion/crash

- SIM800L GSM Module Sends SOS message via SMS


- (Optional) GPS Module Adds location to the SOS

- Buzzer / LED Indicator

- Push Button To cancel false alarms

- Power Supply 5V battery or USB

Estimated Cost
- Arduino Uno R3 Rs. 280 - Rs. 350

- MPU6050 Rs. 100 - Rs. 150

- SIM800L GSM Rs. 400 - Rs. 500

- GPS Module Rs. 350 - Rs. 450

- Misc (wires, etc) Rs. 100 - Rs. 150

- Total Rs. 1200 - Rs. 1500

Why This Project Matters


- Saves lives with early alerts

- Useful for rural and highway areas

- Can be integrated into bikes, cars, buses

- Affordable for widespread adoption

- Encourages STEM innovation among students

Next Steps
1. Collect components from offline/local markets or online.

2. Assemble the circuit and test sensor readings.

3. Write Arduino code for detection + SMS sending.

4. Demo the working prototype.

5. Improve features (app support, voice alerts, etc.)
