A Robust System to Detect and Prevent Boat Accidents

Abstract

Overweight and Capsizing of passenger boats are the main reasons that cause catastrophe. To avoid such disasters we are proposing a robust system for disaster detection and prevention. This system aims to alert the control room and to facilitate the communication between control room and disaster management department in such havoc to avoid maximum loss. It comprises of triple axis accelerometer along with triple axis gyroscope to detect unusual orientation, a weighing load sensor to detect overload and GSM module for communication. All these components are securely positioned in boat with anti tamper alert mechanism, that serves a great purpose of avoiding the passenger boat disasters or tragedies
