Generating emergency vehicle warnings

This invention describes a system that warns drivers in regular cars about nearby emergency vehicles and suggests alternate routes. A computer in the regular car wirelessly receives real-time information about an emergency vehicle, specifically when an emergency call is made. Based on this data, the system generates audible or visual warnings to guide the driver to stop or move out of the way, or provides a new route. The system also allows for insurance providers to offer lower rates to vehicles equipped with this safety feature.

Why it matters: Filed in 2020, the widespread deployment and standardization of C-V2X communication protocols have significantly advanced. This makes reliable, real-time data exchange between emergency and non-emergency vehicles more feasible for broad implementation.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedHeavy software, V2X communication, vehicle integration
