Black box system for car/driver monitoring to decrease the reasons of road crashes

In many countries, millions of people die from accidents road every year. Excessive or improper speed is a significant contributor to car accidents, it is responsible for one-third of all fatalities worldwide. The principal target of this paper is to track the driver's conduct and physical condition on the road based on the vehicle's speed in to reduce the likelihood of an accident. We use a surveillance device which can be put in every car fitted with the OBD-2 standard (On-Board Diagnosis) to monitor the vehicle's current speed in this paper. A PIC microcontroller-based monitoring system, as well as additional devices such as a shock sensor, digital multiplexer, SD card module, camera module, GPS location detector, and GSM global mobile communication system module, will be installed in the vehicle. The speed and position information of the car with an exact date and time will be saved on the SD memory card. In the situation of a crash, a photo will be taken and saved on a memory card specified for the camera, and an urgency message with the most recent position and speed data will be delivered to the closest medical institution and local police, and also the manager or landlord, through the GSM module (in a situation of the car lease).
