Abstract

The purpose of the project is to develop a device that can detect and prevent motorcyclists from drowning during a motorcycle ride. The idea of building the project is because the rate of accidents for motorcyclists every year is very high. Additionally, safety issue issues for motorcyclists are less than advanced technology on wheeled vehicles. This device is designed by using the sensor input on the rider's head to detect head tilt; it was called an accelerometer. One of the drowsiness and sleepy symptoms is head drooping or lose muscle tone. The project is divided into two parts, namely the detector circuit and the operating control circuit. The detector circuit is to detect the inclination of the head by using an accelerometer detector. It will transmit data to the control circuit which will release the vibration and sound output as it prevents drowsiness and warns users. Next, the project uses Arduino Nano microcontrollers to control the detector circuit and the control circuit. Between the two circuits, it is connected to the wireless transmission medium which is Bluetooth. The development process used is based on a waterfall model which contains five phases namely analysis, design, implementation, testing and maintenance. Three types of analysis have been done which are engineering analysis, expert analysis and user analysis. First, the circuit analysis is performed on the output of the voltage in the vibration motor and the buzzer using the oscilloscope. Second, expert analysis is done based on the design and functionality of the product. As the result, it is shown that the average level for the result stated in good level. Third, the analysis of users who give feedback from the five users that used the product. Overall, this project has achieved its objectives, and it works fine.
