I've also thought about such a feature. It's common for new
connected cars, but you always pay the price of not being in control
of the connection and data flows with those systems.<br class="">
<br class="">
As not every car can provide clear crash detection signals, or they
may be inaccessable to the module after the crash (i.e. components
go offline), I thought about monitoring speed & direction for
this.<br class="">
<br class="">
As that introduces potential for false positives, I thought about
first sending an SMS to the registered phone asking "Are you OK?",
and if the user doesn't respond with anything like a "yes" within a
minute, the alert SMS would be sent.<br class="">
<br class="">
v2 had no space left for this, but we definitely should include
something like this in v3 now.<br class="">

<div class="">Hi guys,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
I’ve been thinking of adding an emergency alert to the Kia Soul
module that kicks in when the hazard lights are turned on, airbags
are deployed or in other situations that might be a reason for
concern.
<div class="">These alerts would be sent as SMS to a list of
recipients that the user specifies. Typically I would include my
own number, my wife’s and a few of my closest family.</div>
<div class="">The alert can contain location, type of alert
(airbag deployment, hazard light or other), number of passengers
(by keeping track of the seat belt sensors), maybe using BT to
see which phones are in the car.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">That way, we can call in to see if everything is ok
and act if needed.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">What do you think? Is this functionality that
could/should be general and added to vehicle?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
