Final Project
Retrofittable Driver Safety System
This is a retrofittable driver safety system that monitors driver behaviour. It is aimed at young and high risk drivers with the aim of improving safety and reducing insurance premiums.
How it Works
The device is installed onto the user’s dashboard, where it sits and helps keep driving behaviour safe. It pairs to the user’s phone and keeps score to help keep their insurance premium low.
Customisability
The device comes in a range of colours to easily match the desired aesthetics of the user. It also has a custom base fitted to adapt the device to the user’s specific car dashboard, ensuring it is stable, functional and compatible with all car models.
Working Prototype
Shown here is the working prototype of the product, it has a live computer vision system that can detect the position of the user’s face and trigger notifications if they become unsafe.
User Testing
The device was tested in a driving simulator, with multiple participants. User behaviour towards the feedback systems was evaluated and considered.
