This paper proposes an MCU-based motorcycle safety system with anti-theft features, aiming to reduce accidents and enhance rider safety on national roads through prototype development and modular functions.

Contribution

It introduces a novel motorcycle safety system integrating anti-theft and safety modules, developed via prototyping based on motorist requirements.

Findings

System utilizes multiple modules for danger detection and avoidance

Prototype demonstrates potential to reduce motorcycle accidents

Future testing and development planned for system improvement

Abstract

Due to road traffic accidents, 6941 Filipinos died in 2010, and thousands more were wounded or disabled. Head and neck injuries are the main cause of death, severe injury, and motorcycle users disabilities. Motorcycle users make up a large proportion of those on the road who were killed. The main purpose of the study is to develop an MCU Based Motorcycle System for Optimum Road Safety with Anti-theft Capability that will help motorcycle riders to be safe while travelling in national roads. The researchers will be using the prototyping methodology where in a prototype is built according to the initial requirements gathered from the motorists themselves. The expected result of the proposed methodology is the system will be utilizing the different function of each modules to ensure that the riders will be able to detect and avoid possible danger while on the road. As a result of different literature in relation to each module, the system is expected to provide a new leap to ensure the safety of all riders here in the Philippines. Future studies will ensure the development of the system, provide testing and improve the functionality of the system depending on the test result. Due to the high increase in the number of cars and motorcycle travelling on national road, the percentage of accidents also is getting higher. In line with that, the proposed system is expected to lessen the percentage of accident by avoiding the possible cause of it.
