    Indore: Students Create “Anti-Sleep Alarm” Device To Prevent Road Accidents

    Anti-Sleep Alarm

    A group of five engineering students from Madhya Pradesh’s Indore developed a device that may notify sleep-deprived drivers, particularly during nighttime travel.

    These college students from a private institute have developed an “anti-sleep alarm” device to help drivers prevent accidents on the road.

    The device is linked to the vehicle’s mechanism and contains a sensor that is attached to the driver’s goggles. When a driver closes his eyes while driving, the alarm sounds and the device activates within five seconds. The alarm goes off, and if the driver does not wake up, the vehicle’s wheels slowly come to a halt.

    One of the students in the group, Abhigyan Purohit told ANI, “We have made an anti-sleep alarm device in which a sensor is installed. If the driver’s eyes are closed then the buzzer will ring and even after that the driver’s eyes do not open then the vehicle stops automatically.”

    Talking about the idea of origination, he said, “I was inspired to make this from a bus accident in Hoshangabad (now Narmadapuram) district in which the driver fell asleep and the bus met with an accident.”

    Speaking to ANI, another student, Abhishek Patidar said, “It took three weeks to design it and it has been made by five people (Abhigyan Purohit, Anirudh Sharma, Darshan Jain, Abhishek Patidar and Akshay Nayak). Now, it is being made in a better way by fitting it in the glass of the vehicle or the driver’s goggles.”

    After that, we will talk to a company about the product to launch in the market. Till now no other company or person has made such a product in the market, he added.
