Supporting Safe Driving

ITS Connect aims to foster a community where everyone can experience safe and secure driving. It is a project founded on the vision of achieving zero fatal accidents on the road. Here are some safety features we aim to promote:

• - Ambulance Proximity Alerts: Receive visual and audio notifications about approaching ambulances, helping drivers clear the way in time, even against background noise.
• - Right Turn Safety Warnings: Get alerts on incoming vehicles or pedestrians from blind spots when making right turns, thus preventing potential collisions.
• - Traffic Light Timings: Our system notifies drivers how much time is left until the traffic light turns green, preventing surprises while waiting at intersections.
• - Smooth Traffic Flow: Our technology supports drivers in synchronizing with preceding vehicles, alleviating the stress of navigating through traffic, especially with children onboard.
