This patent covers a smart car safety system that prevents deaths from children or pets being left alone in vehicles. The system uses multiple sensors to detect if someone is still in the car and monitors for dangerous conditions like extreme heat or toxic gases. When both conditions are detected, it automatically takes action like turning on air conditioning, opening windows, sounding alarms, and alerting emergency contacts.
This patent describes a comprehensive vehicle safety system designed to prevent unattended vehicle deaths, particularly of children and pets left in hot cars. The system integrates multiple sensors including ultrasonic, microwave, passive infrared, seat weight, microphone, and carbon dioxide sensors to detect the presence of occupants in vehicles. When combined with environmental sensors monitoring temperature and hazardous gases, the system can automatically detect dangerous conditions and take corrective action. The technology offers significant commercial applications across the automotive industry, from OEM integration in new vehicles to aftermarket safety systems. The system can automatically activate air conditioning or heating, open windows, unlock doors, flash lights, sound alarms, and send emergency alerts to predetermined contacts or emergency services. With an estimated 37 children dying annually from hot car incidents, this technology addresses a critical safety need while potentially reducing liability for vehicle manufacturers and fleet operators.
