Abstract :

According To Various Sources, Including The World Health Organization (WHO), The Most Common Cause Of Death In Fatal Road Accidents Is Drunk Driving. Current Approaches To Breath Testing And Policing Are Generally Reactive Rather Than Proactive. This Paper Introduces A Real Time Alcohol Monitoring And Automated Engine Locking System That Can Inhibit Starting Of The Engine Of The Vehicle In The Event Of Excess Alcohol Levels. The Proposed System Utilizes An MQ3 Alcohol Sensor Board, Arduino Mega 2560 Board, GSM And GPS Modules, Ultrasonic Sensors, MPU6050 Motion Sensor And NodeMCU ESP8266 For IoT Connectivity To The Cloud. In Contrast To Existing Engine Locking Systems, The Proposed System Can Facilitate The Stopping Of Vehicles At Roadblocks, Real Time Tracking Of The Location Of The Vehicle And Sending Alerts To Concerned Authorities Remotely. The Experiments Carried Out Confirmed The Accuracy Of The Sensor And The Quick Response Time Of The System That Can Be Used In ITS Applications
