Toyota develops new tech to help today's distracted masses.
Last year saw 23 children in the U.S. die from heat stroke after being left in vehicles, according to Kids and Cars, a nonprofit focused on preventing injuries and death of children, as well as pets, in and around vehicles. And not every case is simply a parent or carer forgetting. In some cases, children gained access to vehicles and became trapped while they were unattended.
Toyota is still exploring methods Cabin Awareness could use to warn a vehicle's owner, passerby, or first responders. Currently, the technology issues warnings like honks or flashing lights. If these are ignored, it then sends a notification to the vehicle owner's phone, and if programmed it can send warnings through smart home devices or a designated emergency contact.
