Patent ID: 10810879

Abstract:
A system for predicting and preventing car accidents and collisions between vehicles and pedestrians, which comprises a plurality of mobile devices each carried by a pedestrian user or a user riding in a vehicle; a dedicated software application installed on each of the mobile devices adapted to detect the location of the mobile device; one or more geographic servers, each geographic server assigned to a geographic territory and adapted to communicate position and motion information with mobile devices in its geographic territory; and a bridge module adapted to register and sign-in users to the system, and establish and maintain a connection between mobile devices and geographic servers. The geographic server of each territory receives ongoing position and motion updates from all of the mobile devices in its territory and transmits ongoing position and motion updates associated with position and motion of other mobile devices to mobile devices in its territory. The software application is adapted to receive and process updates associated with position and motion of other mobile devices from the geographic server, calculate a collision probability (that may be calculated for a danger domain in the surrounding of the user), and accordingly issue a collision alert to mobile users who are of high probability of collision.
