Abstract: Accidents are one of the leading causes of fatalities around the world. An important indicator of survival rates after an accident is the time between the accident and when emergency medical personnel are dispatched to the scene. To eliminate the delay between accident occurrence and first responder dispatch is to use in-vehicle automatic accident detection and notification systems; we propose to develop an android application which will detect the occurrence of accident through android phone which is kept at the deck of the car. The android phone has inbuilt sensors such as accelerometer, rotational sensors etc. whose values will be analyzed for accident detection. Once accident is detected, the application will capture images from the front and rear camera of Android phone & GPS location will be recorded. This data will be combined in SMS and
MMS and sent to pre-stored contacts which will inform authorities about accident. Moreover, different cars will have different accident detection threshold values we propose to develop an Adaptive Algorithm to detect accident in for different cars. This paper presents related work carried out in this domain and analgises tools require for the idea to be successful. It also describes the proposed idea.
