VEHICLE ALERT RADAR SYSTEM

What is VARS?

VARS: VEHICLE ALERT RADAR SYSTEM is an unlimited range 360 degree GPS radar system that can detect and display the distance and direction of 3 other closest vehicles that are not in line of sight.

IT IS AN ACCIDENT PREVENTIVE SYSTEM.

THE PAIN/PROBLEM

Many cases of vehicle accident at high traffic area such as ports, factories, warehouses, and others worldwide.
This is due to blind spots (sharp corners) from buildings, equipment, shipping containers and transport containers.
The accidents causes injuries and fatalities and cost time and money for the parties involved.

ELEVATOR PITCH

VARS: VEHICLE ALERT RADAR SYSTEM is an unlimited range 360o GPS radar system that can detect and display the distance and direction of 3 other closest vehicles that are not in line of sight.

VARS is an ACCIDENT PREVENTIVE SYSTEM rather than an accident reactive system.
This is for use in areas that have heavy vehicles/vehicles with lots of blind spots (sharp corners).
Other competing solutions are expensive, limited in range, relies on line of sight, are accident reactive system and needs to be installed on the vehicle.
VARS only requires a single Android device on a phone mount with data connectivity.

CURRENT SOLUTION

Telemetry vehicle monitoring system does not warn drivers or prevent accidents.
360 degrees LIDAR system is expensive and limited to 100 to 200 meters and cannot overcome blind spots.
Front camera and radar system used by ADAS system is limited to 160 meters in front only and cannot overcome blind spots.
360 degrees camera system is also expensive and limited to 250 meters and cannot overcome blind spots.
All those needs to be installed on the vehicle.
LIDAR, ADAS and Autopilot are all accident reactive system.

YOUR SOLUTION

Can be used for all types of vehicles.
Low cost because of commercial of the shelf hardware (COTS).
Requires Android smartphone, phone mount and data connectivity.
Easily installed on all types of vehicle (installed on dashboard).
Cover all types of collisions such as side and merge (other solutions does not cover beyond front and rear collisions).
Does not rely on line of sight (no blind spot problem).
Unlimited detection range (range can be set in system).
ACCIDENT PREVENTIVE SYSTEM

TECHNOLOGY

VARS is multiple clients to a server system using Android (clients) and Windows (server).
It provides its GPS radar functionality using network-centric, mobile, locationing, and COTS technology.
The VAR client uses built-in hardware components of an Android to provide real-time telemetry data for the GPS radar functionality.
To reduce information overload, only the closest 3 vehicles within the preset range will be displayed on the device.
The VARS client will display in real time, 3 separate arrows pointing to the direction of the 3 closest vehicles. The distance of the 3 closest vehicle will also be shown.
The VARS client will also speak out the direction and distance of the closest vehicle.
Besides directional arrow, the VARS client also supports offline maps where the 3 closest vehicles will be displayed, and the closest vehicle highlighted.
As of Mar 2024, VARS can DISPLAY THE CURRENT HEADING OF THE 3 CLOSEST VEHICLE on the map.
As of April 2024, VARS has an X-RAY VISION CAPABILITY to look through obstacles.
