Smart Assist Child Car Monitoring with Notification and Alert
Abstract
Children getting trapped in vehicles and suffering from heat strokes is an issue that has been encountered for decades, and some even lead to death. Thus, the development of Smart Assist Child Car Monitoring (SACCM) based on the ESP 32 Camera Module and microcontroller gives awareness to parents or guardians of their child in the car if they are left without supervision. This work aims to prevent human deaths due to in-vehicle heatstroke by creating an autonomous monitoring and alerting system that would notify vehicle owners about any passenger, particularly children, left unattended. The project integrates sensor technology and an alert notification system that can notify if there is a movement of living things (children) in the car through the Short Message Service (SMS), the Telegram application and phone calls. A total of 31 respondents were involved in reviewing the SACCM. The findings indicate that SACCM could identify the child in the car in case the parents forgot. The responses for all the questions received were above 90%, which indicates the project is well received and functioned as described. They responded that alerting the parents could help parents to be aware of their children’s presence. It is hoped that SACCM early notification could notify parents quickly and save lives. We plan to handle call notifications and send messages to the secondary guardians in the future and use the 360-degree camera for a wider angle of observation.
