Finnish engineers create novel sensor technology to prevent hot car deaths
Finnish engineers have developed a sensor-based system that can help save tens of thousands of children – and even pets – locked up in cars, intentionally or accidentally, from heat-related deaths each year. The new PictM™ technology is a solution to calls from US and European safety regulators’ that new rules be implemented mandating child presence detection (CPD) systems in new cars. This will help avoid senseless heat-stroke deaths of unattended children.
