        abstract = {IoT-Based Accident Detection System helps save life of travellers. Traffic accidents are a major global concern, causing fatalities, injuries, and economic losses. Delays in receiving emergency assistance significantly impact these outcomes. This paper proposes an IoT-based Accident Detection System to expedite aid arrival. The system utilizes sensors like tilt sensors and vibrational sensors to detect sudden vehicle jolts or rollovers indicative of accidents. Embedded GPS modules pinpoint the accident location. Upon detection, the system transmits real-time data - including location, potential severity (based on sensor readings) to a central server. The server then triggers automated emergency response protocols, notifying emergency services and potentially pre-registered contacts. This intelligent system aims to reduce response times, streamline emergency response, and ultimately, save lives by ensuring faster medical attention to accident victims.},
