Purpose
A cyclist who crashes on a quiet road may be hurt and alone, with no way to call for help. This prototype set out to notice a genuine accident the instant it happens and get an alert to someone who can respond, automatically, without the rider lifting a finger.
Description
We built a bike-mounted unit that tracks the rider's tilt and motion in real time and learns to tell a real fall apart from ordinary riding, like leaning hard through a turn. When it recognizes a crash, it hands off to a companion phone app that completes the alert, so help can be summoned even if the rider can't. Teaching a small sensor to make that safety judgment reliably, and only when it counts, is the kind of applied problem we're built for.
