01 / THE PROBLEM

Conventional dashboard alarms rely on sound alone, which deeply fatigued drivers may tune out through auditory habituation during a microsleep event.

02 / THE OPPORTUNITY

A low-cost retrofit can detect multiple fatigue signals locally and use a second sensory pathway to provoke a faster, more reliable response.

03 / THE SOLUTION

SafetyGuard monitors eye closure, yawning and head-pose deviation on-device, combines the signals over time, then triggers simultaneous audio and an optional atomised scent pulse without sending or retaining camera footage.

04 / HOW IT WORKS

A clear path from signal to response.

INPUTAI PROCESSINGDECISION ENGINEHUMAN / SYSTEM RESPONSE
KEY INNOVATION

A privacy-preserving, multi-sensory edge system that pairs facial-landmark analysis with a physical olfactory intervention.
