Abstract

Systems and methods for dynamically defining a safety zone around a user are disclosed. In embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: receiving, by a computing device, real-time safety data including a location of a remote participant device of a user; receiving, by the computing device, real-time driving event data from a remote vehicle; determining, by the computing device, a spatial safety zone for the remote participant device based on the real-time safety data and the real-time driving event data; determining, by the computing device, that the remote vehicle has entered the spatial safety zone; and sending, by the computer device, safety information regarding the user to the remote vehicle based on the remote vehicle entering the spatial safety zone.
