The main purpose of paper is to find riders who neglect road safety, which leads to accidents and death. Thus most of the countries mandate the use of the helmets for two-wheeler riders. In order to discourage this behavior police force has been made for traffic to issue violation ticket. This process will be done manual, time consuming and very tedious. Hence proposed system will detect riders who wear the helmet while riding the motor vehicle and helps in finding riders without helmet to get imposed with fine.

The ergonomic design of forest fire helmet is closely related to its safety performance. In order to improve the performance of forest fire helmet, three representative forest fire helmets are evaluated from the shape, material, safety, comfort and other aspects and analyzed according to the firemens usage condition. Some suggestions for helmet design, such as using suspension system, installing height adjuster, using adjustable goggles with peripheral knobs and decomposition using helmets, goggles and masks, are proposed, which provide a referential technical guidance for the design of forest

Abstract:
Road accidents are one of the most common and unavoidable problems in our society which costs our precious lives. Helmets of poor quality only give the lack of security, so helmets with more improvised design become the priority for two-wheelers. Our paper aims to design and prototype safety helmets for motorcycles with innovative design, which facilitates the user to wear it more comfortably. In addition to that, we analyze the improved design and optimize it. As safety is the primary criterion for the customers, we aim to produce the helmets by additive manufacturing with a customized design

In the Korean construction industry, legal and institutional safety management improvements are continually being pursued. However, there was a 4.5% increase in the number of workers’ deaths at construction sites in 2017 compared to the previous year. Failure to wear safety helmets seems to be one of the major causes of the increase in accidents, and so it is necessary to develop technology to monitor whether or not safety helmets are being used. However, the approaches employed in existing technical studies on this issue have mainly involved the use of chinstrap sensors and have been limited

Abstract:
All-terrain vehicle (ATV) safety laws, including helmet use, vary by state and are sporadically enforced. Kentucky state laws require safety helmets only for younger riders. We hypothesized that ATV riders injured in Kentucky and seen at a Tennessee trauma center would more likely be unhelmeted, have more severe head injuries, and have higher mortality rates than those injured in Virginia or Tennessee. A Trauma Registry review of 750 injured ATV riders from June 1, 2005, through June 1, 2015 examined state location of accident, helmet use, markers of injury severity, and outcomes. Multiple log

Abstract:
The biodynamic effects of helmet and other mass additions to the head have been of concern for more than two decades. The Naval Biodynamics Laboratory (NBDL) has performed a series of -X acceleration exposure experiments using Navy volunteers in which the dynamic response of the head was measured as a function of mass distribution variations. The kinematic response was measured for each subject with no mass addition, a helmet and weight-carrying frame, and a helmet with weights positioned on the frame symmetrically about the mid-sagittal plane. There was approximately a 30 percent addition to

Significant proportion of motorcyclists in Nigeria do not adhere to appropriate safety measures due to ethnic and cultural misconceptions, prominent among which is the perceived belief among Yorubas in South-west Nigeria that motorcycle helmets could be a medium for spells and communicable infections. Study assessed the perception of commercial motorcyclists about safety helmets, examined the attitude of motorcyclists and level of compliance with safety helmets.

Abstract:
Bicycle-related falls are a significant cause of mortality and morbidity. Use of bicycle helmets substantially reduces risk of severe traumatic brain injury but compliance with this safety practice is particularly low in urban children. We recruited eleven 8- to 15-year-old youth to participate in focus groups to inform the creation of a video promoting helmet use. Key emerging themes included that youth were responsible for keeping themselves safe and that most youth had cell phones with cases to protect them. A video was created that linked the concept of use of cases to protect phones to us

Abstract:
In the practical application scenarios of safety helmet detection, the lightweight algorithm You Only Look Once (YOLO) v3-tiny is easy to be deployed in embedded devices because its number of parameters is small. However, its detection accuracy is relatively low, which is why it is not suitable for detecting multi-scale safety helmets. The safety helmet detection algorithm (named SAS-YOLOv3-tiny) is proposed in this paper to balance detection accuracy and model complexity.

Abstract:
Recently, object detection methods have developed rapidly and have been widely used in many areas. In many scenarios, helmet wearing detection is very useful, because people are required to wear helmets to protect their safety when they work in construction sites or cycle in the streets. However, for the problem of helmet wearing detection in complex scenes such as construction sites and workshops, the detection accuracy of current approaches still needs to be improved. In this work, we analyze the mechanism and performance of several detection algorithms and identify two feasible base algorit

A smart helmet-based wearable personnel proximity warning system was developed to prevent collisions between equipment and pedestrians in mines. The smart helmet worn by pedestrians receives signals transmitted by Bluetooth beacons attached to heavy equipment, light vehicles, or dangerous zones, and provides visual LED warnings to the pedestrians and operators simultaneously. A performance test of the proposed system was conducted in an underground limestone mine. It was confirmed that as the transmission power of the Bluetooth beacon increased, the Bluetooth low energy (BLE) signal detection
