Abstract: In the aftermath of an incident, numerous valuable lives are tragically forfeited due to the lack of timely and adequate emergency response services. Hence, there arises a necessity for a device to be installed in vehicles that are capable of detecting any untoward incidents and promptly notifying the nearest emergency services providers such as hospitals, ambulance services, and police stations. This paper outlines the development of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based device that comprises an Arduino UNO R3 microcontroller, an accelerometer sensor, a GPS module, and a GSM module. Real-time information about the accident’s location, time, and date are sent using GPS and communicated to the emergency service provider through GSM. Upon receiving this crucial information, the emergency service provider can promptly take appropriate action, thereby potentially saving numerous lives affected by the accident.
