Abstract
"The increasing incidence of road traffic accidents poses significant challenges to public safety and emergency response efficiency. This paper presents a novel accident alert system utilizing Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. The system integrates various sensors, including accelerometers, gyroscopes, and GPS modules, to monitor vehicular movements in real-time. Upon detecting an abnormal event indicative of an accident, the system automatically triggers alerts to predefined emergency contacts and local authorities, providing real-time location data for rapid response. Additionally, a mobile application interface enables users to manage notifications and access emergency resources. Experimental results demonstrate the system's effectiveness in accurately detecting accidents and significantly reducing response time, thereby enhancing overall road safety. This approach offers a scalable solution for urban and rural environments, contributing to improved emergency management."
