Introduction: The purpose of this research was to develop a smart helmet, including emphasizing the AI integration and the device's role in enhancing road safety with a mechanism that stimulates the driver to recognize which vehicle is approaching and the speed levels of the vehicle while it is moving, and to assess the satisfaction and feasibility of drivers while using the smart helmet.
Methods: This study included 139 participants who were general people in Thailand. The research model consists of four research and development steps: research, design and development, implementation, and evaluation. The questionnaires included general information, satisfaction, and feasibility of using a smart helmet.
Results: The study showed that males had a greater number of participants (63.31%), aged between 21 and 40 years (64.03%), higher education (73.38%), and most of the participants were university students (90.64%). Overall, satisfaction with using smart helmets was high (mean = 4.20, SD = 0.83), and the overall possibility of using smart helmets was very high (mean = 4.33, SD = 0.75).
Conclusion: The participants' reflections indicated that smart helmets can be a possibility for further development and are highly feasible practical application devices. Moreover, the smart helmet is beneficial to riders in terms of warning functions to prevent and monitor accidents. Nurses and health care providers may use these results to develop programs or devices that can encourage people to be aware of harm on the road while riding motorcycles.

Several parameters affect our brain's neuronal system and can be identified by analyzing electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. One of the parameters is alcoholism, which affects the pattern of our EEG signals. By analyzing these EEG signals, one can derive information regarding the alcoholic or normal stage of an individual.

Article Synopsis
- Concussions, often linked to mild traumatic brain injuries in sports, are a significant public health issue, with a focus on creating better sensors to measure head impacts.
- This paper introduces a smart textile impact sensor (STIS) that can be integrated into helmet cushioning to assess head impact forces, utilizing a semiconducting polymer composite for enhanced performance.
- Development tests showed that while the STIS performed well under certain impact forces, it struggled to accurately reflect forces exceeding its threshold, though it still provided valuable data on impact distribution.
Research on improved algorithm for helmet detection based on YOLOv5.
Sci Rep
October 2023
Guangdong Polytechnic Normal University, Guangzhou, China.
The continuous development of smart industrial parks has imposed increasingly stringent requirements on safety helmet detection in environments such as factories, construction sites, rail transit, and fire protection. Current models often suffer from issues like false alarms or missed detections, especially when dealing with small and densely packed targets. This study aims to enhance the YOLOv5 target detection method to provide real-time alerts for individuals not wearing safety helmets in complex scenarios.
