RFID Adds Intelligence to Emergency Call Box Telephones
System paves way for embedded airbag activation and off road accident monitoring
Melbourne Australia,
Telepathx ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) a new vertical division of Telepathx Ltd; the Melbourne Australia based communication developer announced today that it will start producing simplex RFID to GSM and Satellite communications modules that will be embedded within existing roadside emergency telephones making highway and arterial roads networks smarter and safer.
The development of the ECB access point module said April Sommers company spokesperson is a very cleaver use of under utilized assets, with the advent of cellular technology many of these 'call boxes' we see on the side of the road now just sit there idle for months at a time.
Now Sommers ads they will be put to work 24 hours a day scanning roads and infrastructure for accidents, incidents and hazardous conditions for transport and emergency services and will be a real benefit to motorist.
James Eades Telepathx CEO said the development is leading the company to what is considered by many as the wholly grail in intelligent transport and emergency services technology and that is monitoring and detecting airbag activations and off road accidents within seconds.
Eades said the company was in the advanced stages of developing a very low cost single chip solution that would be embedded into autos and would alert transport and emergency services of single and multiple car collisions even if they had driven off the road and were hidden by passers by.
What the chip won't contain said Sommers is any private information about the owner or the vehicles identification numbers, but rather it will just identify what type of vehicle is involved in the incident like semi trucks & trailers, passenger cars or possibly even motorcycles at a later stage. The real benefits of the ECB module is its growing multi purpose platform and capabilities that everyone will benefit from.
Telepathx Ltd is at the forefront of reactive sensor network technology and is leading the effort in developing the world's first intelligent energy network in Australia where they will provide community bushfire and auto collision monitoring services from fixed RFID access points, further information can be obtained at telepathx website
