App provides extra eyes on the road
A few high-end cars already come with technology that will issue a warning—or even brake automatically—if the dashboard computer thinks a crash is imminent. Now, for those of us who can’t afford this luxury extra, there’s a smart-phone app that aims to do something similar.
iOnRoad on app, mis jälgib telefoni kaamera abil lähedalasuvaid sõidukeid. App kasutab telefoni GPS'i ja kiirendusmõõturit, et välja arvutada teiste autode liikumiskiirus ning kaugus.
Just place your device in a mount on the dashboard and start up the app. Then your phone will diligently watch the road ahead, and beep a warning if you get too close to the vehicle ahead, alerting you to hastily brake before any damage occurs.
