GM Creates a Technology to Avoid Collisions Between Cars and Pedestrians via Wi-Fi Direct

One of the most vulnerable and feared by the driver is accident due to a collision that resulting in fatalities, thus developed a variety of technologies to avoid this problem. Recently heard a news the General Motors (GM) develop a technology to avoid collisions with pedestrians or cyclists that utilize the Wi-Fi Direct signal.

This technology may be practically a new way, because its usually for a technology with similar purposes mostly use the camera or radar. But the advantages of Wi-Fi Direct is to have a faster response because this technology is peer-to-peer, which means do not need access points, satellite and other to connect two devices.

Through this technology also allows not only the car that got a warning but also the mobile phone user when a car nearby, so the drivers and pedestrians would be equally alert to avoid accidents. The workings of the technology is also quite simple, if the car detect a Wi-Fi Direct signal then the car system will give a warning, so the drivers need to be more vigilant to prevent something undesirable.

Hopefully this technology can be operated immediately, so the accident rate can be reduced and between drivers and pedestrians when on the road will feel safer. But maybe one of the things that will be the question is probably not everyone has a phone that is supported by Wi-Fi Direct technology, because not everyone can afford to buy a phone like this, because for now the price is still relatively expensive for some people in this world.
But in the future the possibility of all people will have a mobile phone with this feature, because the price of the phone usually goes down, and hopefully when everyone already has a device with a Wi-Fi Direct, the technology to avoid accidents developed by General Motors (GM) can be operated.
