Introducing TCR App Mobility
TCR App Mobility is proudly classified among leading DeepTech startups from Poland and Central Europe. We have developed an innovative, research-based and scientifically-proven mobile application (Android and iOS) able to save lives of its users by allowing them to avoid traffic accidents caused by tiredness, drowsiness, inattention and accompanying medical conditions experienced while driving a vehicle. As these factors are directly responsible for over 25% of all road crashes worldwide per year, it constitutes a tremendous improvement of international safety standards – with the most substantial impact on developing countries, historically marginalized communities and people from lower-income classes around the planet.
We utilize artificial intelligence, deep neural networks and mathematical modelling in order to examine the driver’s subconscious behavioural patterns manifested both outside of the vehicle and during a journey (through monitoring of multiple health/perception-related parameters registered via embedded sensors of a smartphone). By discovering unique trends, uncovering involuntary reactions and analysing aware cognitive processes, we can create the individual profile of user's susceptibility to inattention under diverse travel circumstances. Subsequently, this model is employed to estimate the probability of abrupt attention lapses in the near future, allowing us to accomplish unprecedented standards of accident prevention (94% effectiveness after just 3 months of contact with a particular customer).
Our AI-driven decision-making algorithms empower us to set a specific moment in time when the TCR App’s sound alert will be emitted. Whenever a dangerous tendency in registered data is identified, our mobile application is poised to directly impact the user’s brain via voice alarms devised to interrupt the natural process of losing attention prior to any of its negative consequences (hence ensuring the sufficient level of consciousness through the entire journey).
The Challenge
Tiredness, inattention and other health issues experienced while driving a vehicle are directly responsible for over 25% of all road traffic accidents, which cause injuries to 5 million people annually (out of whom 350,000 do not recover). The global economy spends the colossal sum of €500 billion per year for dealing with disastrous consequences of various forms of drowsy driving (e.g. the required healthcare, compensations and damage repairs). Nonetheless, abrupt lapses in attention have to be attributed to human physiological traits – and hence cannot be avoided without scientifically-proven support (eye/lane-tracking cameras or self-control are completely ineffective). Within the next three decades, about 2 billion people will be personally, professionally or financially affected by these formidable societal challenges.
According to international statistics, road injuries are considered a dominant life-threatening factor for children and young adults (aged 5 – 29). They are particularly harmful to people with limited financial abilities, citizens of developing countries and residents of rural areas. We harness the power of AI in order to [1] protect health within the most vulnerable communities and to [2] reduce inequalities between different economic classes. By tackling traffic accidents with medical and perceptual origin, our technology contributes to the 3rd, 10th and 11th UN Development Goals.
TCR App Mobility explicitly responds to: [1] the target no. 3.6 of the 3rd UN SDG (prevention of road traffic accidents and accompanying human injuries) and [2] the target no. 11.2 of the 11th UN SDG (improving road safety, with special attention to the needs of those in the vulnerable situations). In addition to the developed markets, we intend to bring our product to the user communities in Africa, India and Latin America.
Become Our Partner
Our startup offers multiple cooperation opportunities for corporate partners from automotive, mobility, healthcare, insurance, travel and safety industries. The key areas we focus on include: implementation of our solution, pilots with a partnering entity, participation in scientific research (testing of new probabilistic models), data collection and analysis, as well as joint promotional activities. Our fundamental intention is to bring TCR App to customers from developing countries, underprivileged communities, lower-income classes and rural/remote areas – thus reducing social inequalities and contributing to the more equitable future of those who typically cannot afford to cover the costs of private insurance or healthcare.
