What problem does your company want to solve? :
The FreeDrive road animal detector system seeks to prevent collisions between vehicles and animals on the road. By using sensors and cameras to detect the presence of animals on or near the road.
What solution does your company provide? :
The road animal detector system installed on vehicles helps address the problem of collisions with animals on the road by providing early warnings to the driver if there's potential danger.
Describe your project :
Here is a detailed description of how the system works: 1. Sensors: The system is equipped with various sensors such as radar, lidar, and cameras that constantly scan the road ahead and the surrounding environment 2. Animal Detection Algorithm: An advanced animal detection algorithm processes the data from the sensors in real-time to identify animals on or near the road. The algorithm is trained to recognize the shapes and movement patterns of different types of animals 3. Warning System: When an animal is detected, the system triggers visual and auditory warnings inside the vehicle to alert the driver. This could be in the form of a flashing light on the dashboard or a warning sound 4. Automatic Braking: In some advanced systems, if the vehicle is equipped with automatic braking or collision avoidance technology, the system can automatically apply the brakes to prevent a collision with the animal 5. Interface: The system may also have an interface on the dashboard displaying information about the detected animals, including their distance from the vehicle and the recommended course of action for the driver 6. Integration with GPS: The system can be integrated with GPS technology to provide information on high-risk animal crossing areas or animal habitats, allowing the driver to be more alert in those areas 7. Data Logging: The system can also log data on animal encounters, which can be used for analysis and to improve the system's performance over time
