Why Head Injuries Are Serious ???

&

What can we do ?

•75% to 88% of the death due to Head Injury.

•Treatment very costly.

•Requires long hospitalization & follow up.

•High changes of disability even after treatment / recovery.

•Prevention is better than cure.

•We can’t prevent using 2-wheeler but can prevent Head

Injury.

•Helmets are effective in reducing the likely hood of Head

 Injury as well as their severity.

How to make  2-wheeler riders should wear  

Helmet

•Education.

• Public awareness.

• Incentives.

• Enforcement of law  

                  

• Implement our integrated helmet project   

                                  

Ideas behind integrated helmet

The main idea to wear a helmet as compulsory is 

fulfilled by an IR sensor.

IR RAYS TRANSMISSION:

  *Now we just placed an INFRARED transmitter  on one of it’s outer side of helmet.

    *There will be press type button inside the helmet which is connected to the transmitter.

        *When the rider wears the helmet, the button is set to ON state due to contact between inner side of helmet and the riders head.

        *Thus when helmet is weared the IR RAYS will be emitted from the helmet.

          IR RAYS RECEIVER:

*The ultimate aim gets satisfied “When the IR 

RAYS emitted from helmet is received by the IR 

receiver connected with the battery and secondary 

valve. Now the battery is ready for  ignition”

.

 *After ignition the control from circuit will be focused to secondary valve.

*There will be an secondary valve attached to inlet of fuel&air entering to the engine.

*When rider removes helmet ,secondary valve will cut off ,thus no fuel for combustion and the engine stops.

*Thus the only way to ride a bike is to wear  helmet.

•This project is highly economical as it costs very less.

•This compels the people to wear their helmets while 

riding.

•This decreases the  number of death of people  during 

accidents .
