This was the official site for the 2012 introduction of Schuberth's Rider Ecall Rescue System.
Content is from the site's 2012 archived pages and other sources.
Renowned German manufacturer Schuberth announces the RiderEcall rescue system. RiderEcall is an optional accessory suitable for any bike and helmet and it will send GSM and GPS data in case of a crash.
One of the factors which tend to make the situation worse after a bike accident is the rescue unit response. When thinking about crashes in the city area, things are rather simple, but with riders driving alone in the countryside, mountains and other remote areas, time is of the essence.
The RiderEcall is a monitoring device with two modules: one of them is installed on the bike with the included mounting system, and the other sensor is easily attached to any type and make of motorcycle helmet. The bike-side unit also comes with an included power cord for a 12V DC bike socket and is waterproof.
The head unit is encased in rubber and it is shielded against water, dust, cold (-20° Celsius) and heat (+60° Celsius). The helmet module monitors several values such as atypical acceleration and especially deceleration, bike tilt and helmet shocks. In case the recorded parameters exceed certain values, the Schuberth RiderEcall monitoring unit triggers the bike-mounted SOS device.
The SOS unit comes with a SIM card and unique registration number and is in constant contact with the GPS satellites and the phone network. It will automatically call the emergency center and provide the GPS coordinates.
The Schuberth RiderEcall monitoring is based on a yearly subscription, and that's how, each rider can be individually identified in case of an SOS call. Additional medical data made available at registration helps the rescue teams respond faster and more accurately to each emergency case.
Given the many health conditions to be encountered among riders, proper ID helps eliminate potentially harmful treatments at the crash site (allergies, various intolerance syndromes and so on).
The motorcycle unit is fastened on the motorcycle's handlebars using the universal mount supplied – just as simply as when you attach optional navigation devices.
The only condition is a direct visual contact to the GPS satellites and an interference-free connection to the GSM mobile phone network.
Naturally the system has also been tested in rigorous applications and is manufactured in accordance with IP code IP65. Protection is thus provided against water, dust, cold (-20° Celsius) and heat (+60° Celsius).
The motorcycle unit is connected to the on-board socket of your motorcycle using the pre-installed power supply cable (DIN ISO 4165; 12V).
The helmet unit consists of two parts: the actual helmet sensor and a weatherproof rubber cover which you attach to your helmet.
To ensure that the helmet unit operates perfectly, the two parts are supplied already connected to each other.
The helmet sensor is fastened to the helmet by means of a specially designed adhesive strip.
We recommend that you position the assembled sensor at the centre of the rear of your helmet to avoid influencing the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performance of the helmet. The helmet sensor can also be attached anywhere on the outside of the helmet shell, both vertically and horizontally.
The SCHUBERTH RiderEcall is designed for the premium helmets from SCHUBERTH. However, it also fits helmets from other vendors (no guarantee).
To activate the Schuberth RiderEcall System you must register the device at Schuberth.com.
When it is registered, the device is set to your language and the integrated SIM card is released for the GSMN connection.
AN ASIDE: It's been more than three years since Schuberth announced the RiderEcall rescue system. In that time I was hoping that the system would become available in the US. I spend a lot of time on my bike traveling to see customers of the company I work for: Rich Mountain Distribution. They specialize in the newest, best quality wholesale vapor products available. The customers I visit out here on the West Coast are vape stores and medical marijuanna dispensories. I love my job, but depending on the weather it can sometimes get hairy driving my motorcycle. Europe is so fare advanced when it comes to intelligent eCall systems. I just saw that BMW Motorrad which borrowed the eCall technology from its car division has been so well received that it’ll become mandatory for all new cars beginning in 2018. As for motorcycles, it will be available on all BMW bieks as an option beginning in 2017. eCall requires a connection to the mobile phone network in order to trigger the rescue chain. In the “intelligent emergency call” option, the connection is established via the permanently installed mobile communication unit. For the connection no specific mobile operator is required. All that is necessary is at least one operational mobile provider. The service will be made available in all European countries. Hello America, let's get with the eCall technology program.
RiderEcall is an optional accessory suitable for any bike and helmet and it will send GSM and GPS data in case of a crash.
