“Our device is a risk mitigation device targeted towards the insurance and logistics sector. Our hardware consists of IR cameras, IR source and IoT enabled microprocessors with inbuilt AI software, which detects sleep from the facial features particularly the eyes and awakes the driver. Our retrofit device can be installed in all automobiles irrespective of manufacturers or models. Add on features like GPS, multiple camera and proximity sensors can be attached to our set up,” says Mithun.
“For going to market we convert our device (internet of things) into an INSoT (Insurance of things) for insurance companies to remain competitive, they should be looking beyond price and more towards service. Our device will act as a preventive device for drowsy related accidents, thereby reducing claims for insurance companies.”
