Abstract
Disclosed is a system for detecting multiple approaching vehicles and sending alert signals over a communication network. The system includes one or more vehicle mounted units, wherein at least one vehicle mounted unit is attached to a vehicle for capturing and processing data of approaching vehicles. The vehicle mounted unit includes a camera for capturing digital data, a storage unit to store a set of instructions and a pre-defined time value, a vehicle class list; a processing unit for processing the set of instructions, and a communication unit to send alert signals, vehicles and object digital data over the communication network. The set of instructions includes a detection module for detecting multiple approaching vehicles and objects in a single frame, a measurement module for measuring the time between the camera and the approaching vehicles, and an alert module for generating an alert signal for the rider if the time between the camera and the approaching vehicle is less than the pre-defined time value.
