Abstract

Increased number of motorcycles on the road cause a high number of accidents which are primarily due to the usage of mobile phone while riding. Motorcyclists use mobile phones mostly to see navigation instructions, which involve their head movement that leads to distraction and as a result, it may cause accidents. The objective of this paper is to present the development of a helmet with integrated navigation (i.e., NAVHELM) and present evidence that demonstrates how it reduces riders’ distraction and increases focus and responsiveness. NAVHELM utilizes Node MCU ESP8266, an Internet of Things (IoT) platform as the microcontroller that receive navigational data from navigator mobile application and data are displayed on the helmet head-up display. Two food delivery riders have tested NAVHELM. The outcome shows that the use of NAVHELM lessens the rider interruption and increased focus on the street while getting response data through display and audio navigation. The rating given by the riders indicated that having NAVHELM is an added advantage. The use of NAVHELM kept their attention on the road, increase focus and allowing navigation through the head-up display. One of the most significant advantages of this innovation is the possibility of reducing the number of accidents among food delivery riders.
