Abstract
Internet of things (IoT) along with other technologies made possible the realization of connected cars. Despite of all the advancements, every year, large number of children and pets' loss their lives due to heatstroke in an enclosed car. We proposed CarSafe, a system to monitor living things in an enclosed car and take preventive/reactive measures when environment in the car could risk a life. Different sensors sense the environment and if the sensor value reaches to threshold which could be alarming for life, the gateways alert the users through an alert message. CarSafe also triggers an actuation task to take reactive/preventive actions like opening the car window and turning on the Air Conditioner (AC).
