Abstract : Vehicle accidents can have a tremendous impact on people’s life which can cause serious harm or even death. Speeding violations are one of the most often occurring causes of vehicle accidents. The sooner emergency services can reveal information about an accident, the less impact it will have. We have designed an Android-based application using location tracking with Global Positioning System (GPS) technology for this purpose to detect an accident and send an emergency alert message to the nearest police station, health care facility, fire station and emergency contacts has made. In this study, an application named “Track” has been developed that uses Firebase’s real-time database to detect accident signs, generate emergency alerts, and send them to the nearest emergency responders. It also sends a SMS to the emergency contact with the location coordinates of the accident. The system’s real-time location tracking capabilities for victims will significantly improve the survival chances of accident victims by providing timely emergency care. The system will also assist in other disasters like fire, burglary and theft, and other medical crises.
