Abstract: Every day around the world, a large percentage of people die from traffic accident injuries. Increase in ‘Road Accidents’ have increased the death rates as well as is one of the biggest problems faced by human in daily transport. With increase in use of ‘Internet of Things’ smart cars and transportation is being developed, the aim of this project is to use IOT to detect the Car Accident and alert the required authority with intensity of accident for emergency cases and also measure the car health with specific parameters. IOT is a domain where every device is connected to each other and to humans. IOT can be used to solve the current problems by getting the sensor data and detection and intimation about the accidents. A large number of people deaths due to car accidents every day. The common reasons are driver’s mistake and late response from emergency services. There is a need to have an effective road accident detection and information communication system in place to save injured persons. A system sends the information to nearby hospital and police station of exact location of accident spot. In research literature, a number of automatic accident detection systems are proposed by numerous researchers. These include accident detection using smartphones, GSM and GPS technologies, vehicular ad-hoc networks and mobile applications. The implementation of an automatic road accident detection and information communication system in every vehicle is very crucial. This paper presents automatic car accident detection techniques and car health monitoring used to save person’s life.
