Transportation plays a vital role in modern society, as it enables people to travel, transport goods, and carry out everyday activities efficiently. With continuous technological advancements, transportation systems have become faster, safer, and more convenient, significantly improving the quality of life. Despite these improvements, road accidents remain a major concern worldwide, often leading to serious injuries, loss of life, and delays in emergency response. In many cases, the time taken to detect an accident and inform rescue teams can determine the chances of survival for victims. Therefore, the integration of advanced technologies into vehicle safety systems has become increasingly important. The innovative IoT-based automatic accident detection and rescue management system aims to improve emergency response mechanisms for road accidents. This system uses the power of the IoT to automatically detect accidents and quickly notify emergency services. By connecting multiple sensors and smart devices installed inside vehicles and along roadways, the system is capable of continuously monitoring vehicle movement and environmental conditions in real time. The sensors collect important data such as sudden changes in speed, abnormal tilt angles, strong impact forces, and unusual vehicle movements. These parameters are analysed instantly to determine whether an accident has occurred. Once an accident is detected, the system automatically sends alerts to emergency contacts, rescue teams, and nearby medical facilities. It can also provide accurate location information using GPS technology, helping responders reach the accident site quickly. By enabling faster accident detection and efficient rescue coordination, this system helps reduce response time, improve emergency assistance, and potentially save many lives.
