A common traffic scenario involves a leading vehicle (#1), a first trailing vehicle (#2), and a second trailing vehicle (#3). The leading vehicle (#1) applies the brakes and the brake lights are activated. The first trailing vehicle (#2) has line of sight to the brake lights and hopefully applies the brakes. Second trailing vehicle (#3) has line of sight access to the brakes of that first trailing vehicle (#2). In turn, second trailing vehicle (#3) then applies its brakes. This illustrates the underlying problem of lost reaction time because the driver of second trailing vehicle (#3) doesn&#8217;t know that the driver of leading vehicle (#1) is braking and isn&#8217;t alerted upon brake application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Solution<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"961\" height=\"230\" src=\"https:\/\/v2v.inventiveiplaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/baseVideoPicture_5_21.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/v2v.inventiveiplaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/baseVideoPicture_5_21.jpg 961w, https:\/\/v2v.inventiveiplaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/baseVideoPicture_5_21-300x72.jpg 300w, https:\/\/v2v.inventiveiplaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/baseVideoPicture_5_21-768x184.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Vehicle 2 has a forward facing camera 42 (preexists in some vehicle lines), CPU, and light indicator 46 (such as a mini LED array in the existing top center brake light module). Leading vehicles are monitored by the camera 42. When leading vehicle (#1) brakes, applying computer vision to the camera input the braking vehicle (#1) is detected. This triggers the light module 46 simultaneous with the braking. In summary, leading vehicle (#1) brakes, the \u201cShimmer\u201d system of vehicle #2 detects it and visually signals vehicle (#3) in real time, reducing vehicle #2 risk of being rear ended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Prior Prototype Demo<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shimmer Prototype Demo\" width=\"525\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/37EQRDb_HDU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leading Vehicle Braking Notification by Computer Vision The Problem Shimmer is designed to be incorporated into vehicles in order to decrease the possibility of rear end accidents.
