ABSTRACT Internet of things (IoT) has become a major technology in this modern life. Real time system is used for constant monitoring and effectively secure. Accidents often occur frequently nowadays and the fatality rate has been drastically increased about 4.6% on the last year. Half of the people killed in these accidents are youngsters of teenage and middle aged. In India road accidents has become common and the reasons are due to poor driving and badly maintained roads and vehicles. This system provides vehicle control and navigation for the user. In this paper, we present an IoT enabled system to avoid the vehicle accident and theft. Using IoT in designing some special services can make a lifesaver system. In this paper, we have presented an IoT enabled approach that can provide emergency communication and location tracking services in a remote car that meets an unfortunate accident or any other emergency situation. Immediately after an accident or an emergency, the system either starts automatically or may be triggered manually. Depending upon type of emergency it initiates communication and shares critical information. Provision of interactive real- time multimedia communication, real-time location tracking etc. have also been integrated to the proposed system to monitor the exact condition in real-time basis. The system prototype has been designed with Raspberry Pi 3 Model B.

  1. INTRODUCTION

    Internet of Things (IoT) is the technology helping us to achieve the goal of a smart world. IoT and Cyber Physical system have the ability to change the vision of our way of living. All developing countries are aiming to transform their cities in to Smart City by taking several projects. In a smart city every device or better to say every thing is connected 24×7 to the Ubiquitous network. They can communicate to each other regardless of their

    communication protocols and hardware/software infrastructure. Machine to machine (M2M) communication is rapidly growing to make the machines more intelligent and shared in nature. In this paper, we have used the concept of a smart city to provide a life savior system for a smart vehicle in any kind of emergency situation occurredon road. Most of the modern cars are well equipped with several sensors, mechanical devices, software, embedded hardware etc .to pre-detect collisions or crashes and avoid them.

    Safety and security is one of the most important criteria of a vehicle. The kinds of modern safety systems are very much useful and reliable for cabdrivers a swells passenger son road. But those safety system have one major limitation. These system scan only be used to avoid crashes. But unfortunately, if the system fails to avoid an accident or there is any other emergency situation other than accident, those system shaven provision to deal with them. If the driver get sick while driving or some road blockage occurs or some mechanical problem occurs, those systems can the lap. So it is obvious that if the accident information can be sent other specter authorities immediately after a situation has occurred some of the lives could be saved.

    An advanced vehicle monist oaring and tracking system is designed form omit oaring the school vehicle from any location At location Batter altimeand provide safety environment to the traveler .The proposed system would make good use of new technology that based on Embedded Linux board namely RaspberryPi and its advanced feature of storing data baseatreal time. The proposed system work son Global Positioning System (GPS)and Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) which is used for vehicle tracking and monitoring mechanism. ForthispurposeSIM908 Module is used which include all the three things namely GPS GPRS GSM .The GPS gives current location of the vehicle ;GPRS sends the tracking information to the server and the GSM is used for sending alert message to vehicles owned mobile .The proposed system would place inside the vehicle who suppositions to be determined on the webpage and monitor edatreal time. In the proposed system ,there is comparison between the current vehicle path and already specified path inside the file system of Raspberrypi. The proposed system so took care of the travelers safety by using LPG Gas leakage sensor MQ6 and temperature sensor DS18B20. For medical assistance of the user heart beat sensor is implemented in this system.

  2. EXISTING SYSTEM

    Exciting system provides emergency communication and shares the critical information after the accident or the event. It has three main stations. Car data base system has the details about the car. E.g. the vehicular database contains all very essential data about the vehicle. Here the cars registration number, owners details etc. are pre-installed. Control room data base system has the details about the

    nearby hospital police stations, govt. offices, workshops etc along with their locations and respective emergency services are stored. Rescue center data base system has the details about the Individual rescue centers have their own databases to store all the records of emergency messages coming from the emergency control room. In this database, all incoming messages coming from control room are stored with the relevant information about the emergency situations. The information can be viewed on the web page and details can be identified easily.

    Disadvantages

    The System starts to operate only after the event. No protection of vehicle from theft.

    Manual effort is needed to know the mechanical fault.

  3. PROPOSED MODEL

    information to the driver by using the voice play back system. Car door was partially locked means this information is send to the raspberry pi and also any gas leakage is detects in this system this is sent to the raspberry pi. Raspberry-pi will announce this to the driver via voice signal. If any natural calamity or the road is blocked by some barrier, the information is will be announced to the user in predefined manner, when they set the starting point and destination point. Raspberry-pi plays the voice to the driver corresponding to the barrier detected. Once driver update his vehicle details as stop then he only able to starts this vehicle. If any criminal activities occurred to the vehicle that information is send to the raspberry pi. Raspberry-pi sends this information to the driver and nearest police station by using GPS tracking system. The complete information can be viewed on the web page using internet of thing.

    1. Introduction
