Abstract
A computer system for assessing sound within a vehicle to alert a driver of the vehicle to an approaching emergency services vehicle includes a processor and a non-transitory, tangible, computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including: (i) analyzing, based upon a machine learning algorithm, sound data associated with an emergency services vehicle siren; (ii) identifying, based upon the analyzing, a first characteristic associated with the emergency services vehicle siren; (iii) receiving, from a client device disposed within the vehicle, sound data collected within the vehicle; (iv) analyzing the sound data collected within the vehicle; (v) identifying, based upon the analyzing, a second characteristic associated with the sound data collected within the vehicle; (vi) comparing the first characteristic to the second characteristic; and (vii) determining, based upon the comparing, whether the first characteristic substantially matches the second characteristic to determine whether the emergency services vehicle is approaching the vehicle.
