IoT-Driven Accident Alert and Rescue Management System for Smart Mobility
Abstract: An IoT-enabled vehicle accident detection and rescue system is a modern approach aimed at improving road safety by identifying collisions as they occur and facilitating quick emergency assistance. Traffic accidents remain a major cause of death across the globe, and the lack of timely medical help frequently intensifies the severity of injuries. This system leverages the power of the Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor a vehicle's dynamics and detect …

Analysis of a Communication Link Performance Across Various Rayleigh Channels in Tropical Climates
Abstract: Tropical regions are characterized by intense and persistent rainfall throughout most of the year, and this environmental condition significantly influences wireless communication performance. The continuous presence of heavy precipitation weakens, scatters, and disrupts radio frequency signals, causing noticeable attenuation during transmission from the source to the destination. As a result, reliable communication becomes challenging, particularly for modern high-speed systems such as 5G networks. To address this limitation and enhance communication …

Multi-Layered AI-Driven Paradigm Shift in IoT Ecosystem Security
Abstract: As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to weave itself into the fabric of modern life – from smart homes and industrial automation to healthcare and urban infrastructure – the associated security vulnerabilities have become increasingly apparent. Traditional security mechanisms, often built on static rules and perimeter-based defenses, struggle to keep pace with the scale, heterogeneity, and dynamic nature of IoT ecosystems. In response, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as …

IoT-Based Anti-Theft GPS Tracking System for Real-Time Vehicle Monitoring
Abstract: For the last six decades, advances in global positioning systems (GPS) technology for tracking vehicles have greatly enhanced their ability to secure, monitor, and track vehicles. However, many conventional methods using GPS to track vehicles have been limited by the scope of their/its operational communication range. This has reduced their effectiveness in terms of being able to track those vehicles once they are out of the limits of the original …

IoT-Based Smart Stick for the Visually Impaired: Real-Time Obstacle Detection and Auditory Feedback System
Abstract: The smart stick is designed to assist visually impaired individuals by helping them detect obstacles in their surroundings without relying solely on physical contact. The device is equipped with sensors that continuously scan the path ahead of the user. When an obstacle is detected, the sensors convert the information into real-time audio signals that are delivered through headphones. These audio alerts allow users to understand their environment more clearly and …
