An answer to the biggest question “What if?”
Hi fellow readers!!!
Here I come to write some more about causes of road accidents and solutions of those.
How many times while driving you have applied sudden breaks? Why you did that? There might be two reasons one you lost your focus from driving because of some thought just came into your mind and you forgot you’re driving and suddenly you came back from that thought and applied break immediately to avoid crash. The other reason might be the vehicle in front applied sudden breaks and you didn’t get enough time to think and respond and so you did that. Its a fact that this is the biggest reason for most of the accidents.
Now!!How to avoid this? One way you should drive by keeping your focus only on road avoding all other thoughts. But its not possible all the time,after all we are human and human is there to make mistake. But why to do such mistake which cost either yours or someone else’s life?
Now is the time when machines are becoming smarter than human,the reason is we all are becoming lazy and ignores some basic tasks and so we now have “BOT” based AI applications which reminds us of buying something,waking us up in the morning and much more. Also the funny thing is we ourselves and our changing lifestyle is inspiring innovators and developers to build some solutions to suit that.
At DriveBuddy,we are also the same. We have experienced such problems our society is facing and so we are here with the solution to make life easier.
Why solutions like DriveBuddy are required in our society specifically in India? The major reason is we are not at all concerned about our own safety. When we talk about the cars,we used to discuss its looks,speed and mileage. Most of the people hardly looks for the safety systems in our cars. But when we see the number of crashes happenes on the roads and the speed at which Indian roads are getting ranked in some of the most unsafe roads in the world. Isn’t this the time for us to think about our own safety? When we talk about the luxurious cars we used to see all the safety features in those cars but then we used to make our mind like “but,we can’t afford those cars” and majority of Indian people are using the cars which are not so safe to save lives in crashes. But what if we can have such system in our own car that is not pre-built but we can install it and we can avail all those features that all luxurious cars have. Take examples of Tesla,BMW,Mercedes & Volvo all of these cars are having safety features that can save a life in crashe beacuse they are built like that but what if we can not afford these expensive cars?
To answer these all “What if”, we are here with DriveBuddy, a smart driving safety system having all the driving safety features to make any of the car, a smart and safe car.
DriveBuddy’s pre-crash avoidance feature is the one built to save lives when we get distracted while driving or to save ourselves by someone else’s distraction. According to statistics, 80% of total accidents and 65% of total near miss are the result of disrtacted driving. Pre-Crash avoidance is developed to help a car user while driving continuously. DriveBuddy is built to monitor vehicles in the front. The software inside DriveBuddy checks for the vehicles and measures the distance to it. DriveBuddy is capable of detecting vehicles from the 100 meters of distance and constanly gives updates regarding the distance in between. Here is a snap showing how it actually works.
DriveBuddy installed in the car checks for the distance and notifies a user by generating audio visual alerts. DriveBuddy built with specially designed user interface shows alerts as shown below.
As per the current development,DriveBuddy is performing in real time by giving alerts when a car in front gets closer and when is distance is decreased when either user increases the speed or the vehicle in front reduces the speed.
According to the research carried out,when two cars are moving with some speed and they are likely to collide. To aovid the collision and injuries the cars must be at minimum of 2 meters distance when both of them stops.
This is one of the features of DriveBuddy. Stay tuned to get knowledge about all other safety features DriveBuddy is having.
