Specification

The present disclosure relates generally to automotive system for a vehicle. More particularly, the present disclosure provides a system for detecting accident of a vehicle and reporting to concerned person automatically.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art. [0003] The transportation facilities in metropolitan cities have undergone a tremendous proliferation in recent years which have made the human lives easier by increasing the mobility. However, recently in daily life scenarios, it is observed that said advancements in transportation have also simultaneously increased traffic hazards. Various efforts has been made by government and other organizations to create awareness against careless driving, still there is no reduction in the number of accidents. It is also observed that the ratio of road accidents is increasing day by day which is causing an immense loss of life due to improper emergency and alerting facilities. There could be various possible reasons behind the increase in road accidents, some of which are over speeding, careless driving, drunken driving, avoiding seat belts and helmets. In light of increasing road accidents, preventing said accidents and saving human or animal life has become a concern. Therefore, there is a need to provide quickly rescue to a driver or other person in the vehicle immediately after an accident without wasting much time.
[0004] Presently, there exist several solutions to detect the accidents and inform the hospitals and police about the detected accidents. In one of the existing solutions, the system detects accident based on the vehicle's speed i.e. if a vehicle is abruptly stopped due to any reason, it may be considered as accident. However, said system fails to check the reason of the accident. For example, if a driver of the vehicle is driving at a speed of 100 km/hr and suddenly the driver stops the

vehicle due to a sudden appearance of an animal in front of the vehicle, then also the system will consider it as an accident and perform requisite actions. Therefore, the system lacks deciding criteria required in identifying whether or not an accident is detected. This is a time wasting and costly process. In another existing solution, sensors are installed in the vehicles to detect the accidents but said sensors are unable to determine exact location of the accident, and therefore, the sensors are totally dependent on any information received from people present near the accident location. Thus, the existing solutions are unable to inform the nearby hospitals and police in real time, also these solutions are fail to determine the direct impact and the associated deformation of the vehicle. Thus, the existing solutions due to lack of exact location of the accident results in delay to inform the nearby hospitals and other concerned person.
[0005] There is a need to provide a solution that overcomes the above-mentioned and other limitations of existing solutions of an efficient mechanism to detect the accident and notify the nearby hospitals, police etc. in a real time manner without causing any delay.

receive the first set of signals;
extract a second set of signals from the first set of signals, wherein said first set of parameters pertains to the plurality of parameters;
compare the plurality of parameters with a first dataset, wherein the first dataset comprises pre-defined threshold values; and
generate a first set of alert signals, when one or more of the plurality of parameters found beyond the associated threshold value from the pre-defined threshold values; wherein the generated first set of alert signals are transmitted to one or more computing device through a GSM module, wherein the first set of alert signals comprises real-time location of the vehicle received from the location signal and one or more attributes of the vehicle.
2. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first set of sensors comprises any or a combination of, tilt sensor, accelerometer, pressure sensor, wheel sensor, shock sensor, and gyroscopic sensor.
3. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the plurality of parameters comprises any or a combination of speed, wheel rotation, steering rotation, impact, pressure, angular velocity, vibration, and tilt of the vehicle.
4. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the system comprises a second set of sensors positioned inside the vehicle to detect smoke leakage, and gas leakage inside the vehicle, and correspondingly generate a third set of signals.

5. The system as claimed in claim 4, wherein the processing unit is configured
to:
extract a fourth set of signals from the received third set of signals, wherein the fourth set of signals pertains to level of smoke and gas inside the vehicle; and
compare the extracted level of smoke and gas with the pre-defined threshold values; and
generate a second set of alert signals, when level of any or a combination of smoke and gas are found above the associated threshold value from the pre-defined threshold values, wherein the generated second set of alert signals are transmitted to an alert unit, wherein the alert unit is operatively coupled with the processing unit.
6. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the second set of sensors comprises any or a combination of flame detector, temperature sensor, gas sensor, and gas leakage detector.
7. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein positioning unit comprises any or a combination of location sensor, Global Positioning System sensor, and geolocation sensor.
8. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the one or more computing devices comprises any or a combination of cell phone, laptop, palmtop, I pad, and tablet, wherein the one or more computing devices are associated with one or more entities such as concerned person, and hospital, police station, and service center positioned in vicinity of the vehicle.
9. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the system comprises a display unit configured to display pre-stored images and videos, and an audio unit configured to produce acoustic signals for providing assistance to manage vehicle breakdown.
10. A method for detecting accident of a vehicle and reporting, the method comprising:
detecting, by a first set of sensors, a plurality of parameters; determining, by a positioning unit, a location signal;

analyzing, by one or more processors, the plurality of parameters with a
first dataset comprising a pre-defined threshold values;
generating, by one or more processors, a first set of alert signals, when one
or more of the plurality of parameters found beyond the associated
threshold value; and
transmitting, by one or more processors, the generated first set of alert
signals to one or more computing devices through a GSM module,
wherein the received first set of alert signal comprises real-time location of
the vehicle received from the location signal and one or more attributes of
the vehicle.
