The helmet comprises a plurality of sensors including accelerometers, gyroscopes, and impact detectors for real-time crash identification. A GPS module determines the rider's location, and a GSM or equivalent communication unit transmits alert signals to predefined emergency contacts and authorities. The helmet further includes radar or camera-based blind spot detection sensors adapted to warn the rider of approaching vehicles, and physiological sensors such as heart rate monitors for detecting fatigue or distress. Upon detection of an accident or critical health event, the system automatically communicates the rider's location and condition to emergency services. The invention enhances rider safety by integrating sensing, monitoring, and communication functionalities into a wearable device, thereby reducing accident risks and enabling timely emergency assistance."
