Human lost their life abruptly in the accidents, in which road accidents they strayed life, property and some of were injured, they suffer with that injury for their whole life. Driver Fatigue is one of the most common reasons for fatal road accidents around the world. Fatigue is a general term commonly used to describe the experience of being “sleepy,” “tired,” “drowsy,” or “exhausted.” Accidents caused by drowsy drivers tend to result in serious damage as they are unable to hit the brakes or turn the steering wheel in time to avoid a dangerous situation. Where a driver of a heavy vehicle is often exposed to hours of monotonous driving which causes fatigue without frequent rest period.
Aiming to prevent this type of dangerous driving in this project we are using ignition key, when the person starts the vehicle by using the key, the jammer automatically turns into on condition. And also we are using a touch sensor which is connected to steering because when the person gets into sleep or driver is unconditional to steer, automatically the sensor gets activated then it gives the signal to the vibrator and 60db siren by using Atmel 89S52 microcontroller. LCD display which is connected to the microcontroller is used to display the status of the vehicle.
