Motorcycle System for Optimum Road Safety with Anti-theft Capability

Abstract

<jats:p>Due to road traffic accidents, 6941 Filipinos died in 2010, and thousands more were wounded or disabled. Head and neck injuries are the main cause of death, severe injury, and motorcycle users ' disabilities. Motorcycle users make up a large proportion of those on the road who were killed. The study’s main purpose is to develop an MCU Based Motorcycle System for Optimum Road Safety with Anti-theft Capability that will help motorcycle riders to be safe while travelling in national roads. The researchers will be using the prototyping methodology where in a prototype is built according to the initial requirements gathered from the motorists themselves. The expected result of the proposed methodology is the system will be utilizing the different function of each modules to ensure that the riders will be able to detect and avoid possible danger while on the road. As a result of different literature in relation to each module, the system is expected to provide a new leap to ensure the safety of all riders here in the Philippines. Future studies will ensure the development of the system, provide testing and improve the system’s functionality depending on the test result. Due to the high increase in the number of cars and motorcycle travelling on national road, the percentage of accidents also is getting higher. In line with that, the proposed system is expected to lessen the percentage of accident by avoiding the possible cause of it.</jats:p>

Application of Kernel Density Estimation to Identify Motorcycle Theft Hot Spots in Kuching, Sarawak

“…LITERATURE REVIEW Mao et al, (2018) used clustering analysis to identify crime focus areas while spatial autocorrelation technique works to detect areas with high and low clustering. Besides that, other study found the offender pick motorcycle off the ground and load it into a van (Godoy, 2020). This tactic shows that the offender can steal motorcycle when opportunity presents itself.…”

“…National Insurance Crime Bureau (2020) showed that the top 10 states in the world for motorcycle thefts in 2018 were California, Florida, Texas, New York, South Carolina, North Carolina, Indiana, Missouri, Georgia and Colorado. Besides that, theft of motorcycles is most commonly reported in the Philippines (Godoy, 2020) and it is also contributing a major form of property crime in Nigeria (Ogundipe & Ojedokun, 2017). In Malaysia, government preventions of motorcycle theft are being carried out through better lighting hot spot parking areas, promotion of use of anti-theft U-locks, and using decoys (Hamidi, 2015).…”
