Design of Application an Intelligent Transportation System for Monitoring Traffic Accidents

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop a traffic accident monitoring system employing a variety of sensors (accelerometer sensors, picture and sound sensors, GPS) in connection with Intelligent Transportation System applications on the Android platform. The system can automatically detect traffic accidents early by notifying the emergency messaging server after the accident and providing the driver's situation with photos, position coordinates, video communication channels, and accident data recording. This smartphone application is designed to determine the position and condition of camera-captured images taken during an accident and connects users immediately to the police and nearby hospital. This system is expected to minimize the time between an accident and information transmitted via autonomous accident detection. This accident application may provide information to aid in handling accidents more quickly and precisely.
