🛡️ Smart Helmet – IoT-Powered Crash Detection & Emergency Alert System
Tech Stack: Flutter | Firebase | Local DataBase (SQFLite)| Real-Time Location APIs | IoT Integration
Role: Flutter App Developer
Client: Academic/Research-Based Project
Year: 2024
🚨 The Challenge
Motorbike accidents are a major global concern. Traditional helmets protect only physically, but what about after the crash? Most victims are left helpless—unable to call for aid.
Smart Helmet addresses this life-threatening gap by enabling real-time crash detection and automatic emergency response using a mobile-connected smart system.
🧠 My Contribution
I built the companion mobile application in Flutter, which connects with helmet-mounted sensors via Bluetooth. The app handles real-time alerts, live GPS tracking, and emergency contact notifications—all with a sleek, intuitive UI.
⚙️ Key Features
🧠 Crash Detection: Detects high-impact collisions using connected IoT sensors
🆘 Auto Alerts: Sends SMS + GPS location to predefined emergency contacts
📍 Live GPS Tracking: Riders' location monitored in real time
📲 SOS Button: Manual panic trigger built into the helmet
🔋 Battery Optimization: App optimized for low power consumption during long rides
🔗 Bluetooth Sync: Seamless connection with helmet sensors
🎯 The Impact
Smart Helmet elevates road safety with technology that thinks ahead. In emergencies, seconds save lives—and this app helps reduce response time dramatically. Whether on a solo trip or the daily commute, Smart Helmet offers riders and their loved ones peace of mind.
