Accident Alerting System With Alcohol Detection Using MQ3 Sensor

This document describes a project to design an accident alerting system using an MQ3 alcohol detection sensor that can lock a vehicle's engine if the driver is determined to be drunk. It provides the abstract, introduction, block diagram, hardware and software used, advantages and applications, results, and conclusion. The system works by detecting alcohol levels in a driver's breath and comparing it to a threshold; if exceeded, it activates a relay to automatically lock the vehicle and trigger a buzzer. The goal is to prevent accidents caused by drunk driving.

Abstract

In the present scenario, most of the road accidents are


occurring due to drunken-driving.
The drivers who drink alcohol are not in a stable condition
and so their rash driving causes accidents.
The main aim of our project is to design and implement an
Alcohol detection with engine locking system for vehicles to
avoid accidents.
Introduction

It works on a simple principle, when a driver consumes alcohol then


the breath analyser sensor will detect the level of alcohol in the driver’s
breath.
Now this information is given as input to the microcontroller and it
compares with the set-in limits.
If the alcohol consumed by the person exceeds the threshold value,
the system of activating relay is initiated which in turn activates the
automatic lock on the vehicle.
The system will lock the engine at the same time it gives a buzzer.
Even if a person consumes the alcohol after the start of engine, then
the sensor still detects the alcohol molecules in his breath and stops
the engine.
