EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The study aimed to develop a Radio Frequency Based Power Ignition Helmet to prevent the severe damage caused by accident when driving without helmet. It aimed to lessen issues of carnaping because of its dual purpose lock. It was conducted at the University of Rizal System Morong Campus during academic year 2016-2017. In conducting this study, the researchers utilized the developmental and descriptive types of research. It was evaluated by two groups of respondents, ten (10) electronics experts and twenty (20) end-users who were chosen using purposive sampling technique. They evaluated the study in terms of functionality, usefulness, user friendliness and safety and maintenance. Also, they used the adapted and modified questioner-checklist. As to the acceptability of the developed project in terms of functionality, usefulness, friendliness, safety and maintenance as evaluated by the experts and end-users, it is extremely accepted. Based From the summary of findings, it was found that there is no significant difference on the evaluation made by the experts and end users with respect to functionality and safety and maintenance, therefore it was accepted. On the other hand, there was significant difference on the evaluation with respect to usefulness and user friendliness, therefore it was rejected. Based from the performance of the developed Radio Frequency Based Power Ignition Helmet Device, with respect to sensor sensitivity, the overall result got a 4.7 average score which is verbally interpreted as, 'Extremely Accepted' with respect to transceiver ranges, the average score for the test in effective distance is 3.5 which are verbally interpreted as, Very Much Effective. And based from the results of the study, the researchers arrived with the following recommendations: user's manual must be developed to guide the users. The condition of the battery should be checked regularly, for safety. Other researchers should conduct further study in order to enhance the capability of the developed device.
