Project summary
Annually, around 30,000 people in the UK suffer fatal or serious injuries in road traffic collisions. This pilot project aims to significantly reduce fatal and severe injuries by leveraging in-vehicle sensor technology to predict injuries and improve post-crash care.
This project addresses the lack of real-world sensor data for injury prediction algorithms and will uniquely develop algorithms for overall injury prediction and specialised algorithms for time-critical injuries from actual collision sensor data and injury outcomes.
