Interesting use of the new #Apple #iPhone 14 on-board sensors with a #privacybydesign approach that could save lives.
• gyroscope: detect when the device is falling;
• accelerometer: detect abnormally quick deceleration;
• barometer: detect rapid pressure change, such as airbags deploying;
• microphone: detect typical crash noise patterns;
• GPS: positioning to alert emergency services;
• call: automatically alert services after 10 seconds of detecting a crash (unless actively cancelled by the user);
• privacy: “Sensor data from your devices are used to detect severe car crashes. All sensor data used to detect severe car crashes is processed on device and discarded after a crash is detected, unless you agree to share your data to improve Crash Detection.”
