Abstract

Motorcycle is highly utilised in logistic with the expansion of delivery services, such as food and goods. In this pandemic era, the consumption of motorcycle increases as some of the delivery agent also use own transportation to deliver customer parcels. However, motorcycle is the most dangerous vehicle compared to others because of the only safety that is equipped to rider is a helmet. According to the statistics, accident that occur to the motorcycle is the highest compared to other vehicle, and the number of deaths caused by motorcycle also the highest. The goal of this project is to create a prototype of a safety helmet which not only able to protect the rider physically but also able to notify the rider close contact in the case of accident happened. By taking into consideration that delivery may occur at rural area with limited or no internet coverage, this project focuses on the notification via short messaging service (SMS). The prototype is constructed by using Arduino and programmed to control elements involved such as crash sensor, GSM module, GPRS module and antenna. In final phase the crash notification system will be mounted into the basic helmet which is commonly used by normal riders and verified its functionality. Lastly, a crash notification helmet is developed using the Arduino Uno as a microcontroller, to notify close contact in the case of accident occurs.
