Abstract: The titled invention discloses an intelligent automotive safety platform for crash identification and mitigation that automatically detects vehicle accidents using an accelerometer and gyroscope module (2) controlled by a microcontroller (1). Upon 10 detecting a collision, the system acquires the vehicle location through a GPS module (3) and transmits emergency alerts containing the coordinates via a GSM module (4) to predefined contacts. Simultaneously, a relay module (7), DC motor actuator (8), and buzzer (9) are activated to initiate local safety responses and emergency warnings. A DC-DC buck converter (5) provides regulated power to the system, while a 16x2 LCD 15 display (6) presents operational and emergency status information. The invention enables rapid accident detection and emergency notification without requiring internet connectivity, thereby reducing rescue response time and improving vehicle occupant safety.
