AI CCTV ACCIDENT DETECTION

Abstract: Road accidents are one of the major causes of injuries and fatalities around the world. In many cases, delays in identifying accidents and informing emergency services increase the severity of the situation. This project focuses on developing a system that can detect road accidents using CCTV cameras. and artificial intelligence techniques to automatically detect road accidents the system analyses video footage captured from surveillance cameras to identify vehicle movement and possible accidents. YOLO (You Only Look Once).

When an abnormal situation such as a collision or sudden stop is detected, the system determines the location of the accident using a grid-based mapping method and sends an alert to the nearest patrol unit via email. The proposed system is developed using Python and computer vision libraries. This approach helps in reducing the response time of emergency services and improving road safety.
