Description:SAFETY SYSTEM FOR VEHICLES

FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0001] This invention generally relates to a field of automotive safety systems and, in particular, relates to a system and a method to detect unintended reverse motion or rollaway conditions in a vehicle, and alert a driver to prevent the unintended reverse motion or the rollaway conditions in the vehicle.
BACKGROUND
[0002] The subject matter discussed in the background section should not be assumed to be prior art merely as a result of its mention in the background section. Similarly, a problem mentioned in the background section or associated with the subject matter of the background section should not be assumed to have been previously recognized in the prior art. The subject matter in the background section merely represents different approaches, which in and of themselves may also correspond to implementations of the claimed technology.
[0003] Vehicle rollaway and unintended movement of a vehicle present significant safety hazards, particularly when , Claims:WE CLAIM:
1. A safety system (100) for a vehicle, comprising:
a plurality of sensors (102) configured to detect one or more parameters associated with motion of the vehicle;
at least one controller (104) communicatively coupled with the plurality of sensors (102), wherein the at least one controller (104) is configured to:
receive the one or more parameters from the plurality of sensors (102),
detect an unintended motion of the vehicle based at least on the received one or more parameters, and
generate an alert signal based at least on the detection; and
an alert unit (106) communicatively coupled to the at least one controller (104), wherein the alert unit (106) is configured to:
receive the alert signal from the at least one controller (104), and
trigger an alarm for a user based at least on the received alert signal.

2. The safety system (100) for the vehicle as claimed in claim 1, wherein the plurality of sensors (102) comprises at least a gyroscopic sensor, an odometer sensor and a wheel rotation sensor
