dc.description.abstract | Motorbikes have been a great
medium of transportation among many people
for decades. Nowadays, road accidents are much
prominent on roads, and the tendency for motor
bike users to get affected by those accidents is
high. Owing to the reason that motorbike users
are exposed to the outside world, their death rate
is at a higher rate. Moreover, there is an
increased rate of injury other than the deaths
that occur as a result of road accidents. Though
there are various helmet designs, they only
ensure the safety of the motorbike riders to some
extent. Therefore, there is the need to design a
smart helmet that secures the lives of motorbike
riders. Nevertheless, various smart helmets have
been designed for the safety of motor bike riders
integrating much more functionalities. This study
mainly focuses on designing a smart helmet using
the Kansei Engineering principles. This paper
presents the design of a smart helmet that
involves identifying the motorbike riders’
emotions and integrating those results in
designing the smart helmet. | en_US |
