BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Riding two-wheeler such as motorcycles on the road can be very dangerous, more dangerous that four-wheelers, due to various factors. First, a motorcyclist is not covered within a protective passenger structure, and so if in an accident, there is no protectionavailable for the motorcyclist. Therefore, an accident can cause a lot of injuries to the motorcyclist in many ways. For example, the motorcyclist can be hit directly by another vehicle, can get thrown off the motorcycle and land on the ground or another object, can get hit by a vehicle after getting thrown off the motorcycle, etc.
[0004] In addition, if thrown from a motorcycle during an accident, a motorcyclist can be difficult to spot, when a search is conducted after the accident. When the accident happens at night, it may be difficult for a motorcyclist to be found, particularly when the motorcyclist was thrown from his/her motorcycle. Further, when the motorcyclist is debilitated from the crash, it may be particularly difficult for the motorcyclist to be spotted after the accident. This may worsen the situation, especially if quick help to the motorcyclist could prevent permanent damage or even death.
[0005] Therefore, there is a need of an alert system that can overcome above-mentioned challenges in the art. In addition, the alert system must be strong enough to withstand the impact of accident. Further, it would be advantageous if the alert system should notify the user regarding possibility of the accident to be happened so that the user can take appropriate actionbefore the accident happened. Additionally, the alert system should consume less power and must be lightweight enough to be fitted on a two wheeler and should have small size enough to avoid any major modifications on motorcycle.

[0049] Various objects, features, aspects and advantages of the inventive subject matter will become more apparent from the following detailed description of preferred embodiments, along with the accompanying drawing figures in which like numerals represent like components.
[0050] FIG. 1 illustrates an exemplary network architecture in which or with which proposed alert system can be implemented in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0051] The network architecture 100 may include an alert system that may be configured with a vehicle. The alert system may include a first set of sensors 102, a second set of sensors 103, and a control unit 104. The first 102 and the second 103 sets of sensors may be operatively coupled to the control unit 104. The each of the first 102 and the second set of sensors may be configured to receive or transmit data with the control unit 104. [0052] In an embodiment, the first set of sensors 102 may be configured to sense one or more parameters pertaining to movement and position of the vehicle. The first set of sensors 102 may include any one or a combination of tilt sensor, gyroscope, rotation sensor, and proximity sensor. In an embodiment, the first set of sensors 102 may be configured to send values of the sensed one or more parameters to the control unit 104.
[0053] In an embodiment, the one or more attributes may include any one or a combination of tilt position of vehicle with respect to a ground surface, rate of rotation of wheel of the vehicle, a number of rotations of the vehicle, speed of rotation of the vehicle or the wheel of the vehicle, an angle of inclination, a rate of changing of speed and an angle of inclination, an orientation of the vehicle with respect to the ground surface, and angular velocity of the vehicle.
[0054] In an embodiment, the second set of sensors 103 may be configured to sense a real-time location of the vehicle. In another embodiment, the second set of sensors 103 may be configured to sense a real-time location of the user. The second set of sensors 103 may be configured to send information about the real-time location of the user and/or vehicle to the control unit 104. Additionally, or alternatively, the second set of sensors may be configured as a reciver to receive the information about the real-time location of the user and/or of the vehicle through any one or a combination of Beidou Navigation Satellite System, Galileo Navigation Satellite System, Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS), Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS),Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), Global Positioning System (GPS),Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONSS), Navigation with Indian Constellation (NAVIC) and so forth.

[0055] In an embodiment, the alert system may include a control unit 104 that may be configured to receive the sensed one or more parameters from the first set of sensors 102. In an embodiment, the control unit 104 may be configured to receive the real-time location of the user and/or of the vehicle from the second set of sensors 103.
[0056] In an embodiment, the control unit 104 may be implemented as a hardware component. In different embodiments, the control unit 104 may be implemented as a computer program product, which may include a computer-readable storage medium employing a set of instructions. In another embodiment, the control unit 104 may be implemented as a computer program product, which may include a computer-readable storage medium employing a set of instructions.
[0057] In an embodiment, the control unit 104 may be operatively coupled to a database. In an embodiment, the control unit 104 may be configured to compare at least one of the sensed one or more parameters received from the first set of sensors 102 with a respective threshold. In an embodiment, the threshold may be selected from a group comprising one or more thresholds stored in the database. For each of the sensed one or more parameters, a respective threshold may be defined. For example, the threshold for tilting position of vehicle may be defined as Thl, whereas a threshold for a number of rotations of vehicle may be defined as Th2.
[0058] In an embodiment, based on the comparison, the control unit 104 may be configured to determine whether value of at least one of the sensed one or more parameters exceeds a respective threshold. In an embodiment, the value of the sensed one or more parameters exceeding the respective threshold may indicate that there is an accident occurred with the vehicle. In another embodiment, the value of the sensed one or more parameters exceeding the respective threshold may indicate that there may be probability that the accident may occur. In an embodiment, value of the sensed one or more parameters being less than the respective threshold may indicate that there is no probability of an accident being occurred with the vehicle.
[0059] In an embodiment, when the control unit 104 determines that the value of the sensed one or more parameters exceeds the respective threshold, the control unit 104 may be configured to generate one or more alert signals. The one or more generated signals may be transmitted to one or more remote computing devices 105. In another embodiment, the alert system may include a transceiver that may be configured to transmit the one or more alert signals to a central server that may further send the alert signals, with or without modification

to the alert signals, to the one or more remote computing devices 105. In an embodiment, the transceiver may be configured to be part of the control unit 104.
[0060] In another embodiment, each of the one or more thresholds may include a first threshold and a second threshold being greater than the first threshold. The control unit 104 may be configured to compare the values of at least one of the one or more parameters with the respective first threshold and the respective threshold. Based on the comparison, the control unit 104 may be configured to determine whether:
a) Mode A: the value of the at least one of the one or more parameters is less than or equal to the first threshold,
b) Mode B: the value of the at least one of the one or more parameters falls between the first threshold and the second threshold,
c) Mode C: the value of the at least one of the one or more parameters is greater than or equal to the second threshold.
Thus, the control unit 104 may be configured to determine whether the value of the at least one of the one or more parameters (hereinafter refers to "value") falls in one of Mode A, ModeB, and Mode C.
[0061] In an embodiment, when the value is in Mode A, the control unit 104 may be configured to determine that the user or vehicle is in safety limit. In other words, there is no chance of occurrence of accident associated with the vehicle of the user. [0062] In an embodiment, the safety limit may refer to a condition or a state of the vehicle, where at least one of the one or more parameters falls within the first threshold. [0063] In an embodiment, when the value is in Mode B, the control unit 104 may be configured to determine that the user or vehicle is out of safety limit. In other words, there may be chances of occurrence of accident associated with the vehicle of the user. In an embodiment, the control unit 104 may be configured to generate one or more alert signals. In another embodiment, the one or more alert signals may be transmitted to the user. Particularly, the one or more alert signals may be transmitted to the one or more remote computing devices 105 that are associated with the user and/or the one or more remote computing devices 105 that inform the user about the accident that might occur. In an exemplary embodiment, the one or more remote computing devices 105 may include an alert unit that may generate an alarm signal. In an embodiment, the alert unit may be configured outside the control unit, which may be operatively coupled to the control unit 104. In an example, the alert unit may generate and/or transmit an alarm signal in the form of sound/horn/beep informing the user that the vehicle is out of safety limit.The transmitted

alarm signal may include information about the at least one of the sensed one or more parameters to be changed. The information may further inform the user to change the value of the one or more parameters in order to bring the vehicle in safety limit. [0064] In an embodiment, when the value is in Mode C, the control unit 104 may be configured to determine that the accident associated with the vehicle might have been occurred. In the embodiment, the control unit 104 may be configured to generate one or more alert signals. The one or more alert signals may be transmitted to one or more remote computing devices 105, where, in response to receipt of the one or more alert signals, the one or more remote computing devices 105 may generate a notification and then transmit the generated notification to another user/emergency services, where the notification may include information about the accident that might have occurred with the vehicle. The information may include, by way of example but not limited to, real time location where the accident might have occurred, speed of the vehicle when the accident occurred and so forth. [0065] In an embodiment, the one or more generated alert signals may be transmitted to the server/another user via one or more of radio frequency (RF), telephone, mobile phone frequencies, satellite phone frequencies, internet, short range wireless communication or Wi-Fi.
[0066] In an embodiment, the one or more generated alert signals may include any one or a combination of information about the real-time location of the user, information about the real-time location of the vehicle, values of the sensed one or more parameters, the respective threshold and so forth.
[0067] In an embodiment, the one or more generated alert signals may be transmitted via one or more of radio frequency (RF), telephone, mobile phone frequencies, satellite phone frequencies, internet, short range wireless communication or Wi-Fi.
[0068] In an embodiment, the alert system may be connected to a power source that may be configured to supply an electrical power to the at least one of the first set of sensors 102 and the second set of sensors 103, and the control unit 104. The power source may be configured to allow the alert system to work even when the engine of the vehicle is off. [0069] In an embodiment, the alert system may be provided with a control switch that may be configured to turn off or turn on the alert system. The control switch may be helpful, when one or more parameters gets changed due to maintenance of one or more components of the vehicle. In an example, when the power source needs to be replaced, the one or more parameters may get changed, which may evoke generation of one or more alert signals. In

such scenario, the control switch may be helpful that may avoid generation of one or more alert signals in the process of maintenance of alert system/vehicle.
[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, in an accident, the alert system and/or vehicle may get completely destroyed. In an embodiment, the alert system may be disconnected with the cellular network or GNSS network. In such cases, the one or more remote computing devices 105 may send ping requests continuously to the alert system through SIM and satellite phone. When the one or more remote computing devices 105 does not receive any reply message in response to the ping request, the one or more remote computing devices 105 may inform to another user with history of previously stored location and previously sensed one or more parameters. In an exemplary embodiment, additionally or alternatively to SIM,Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS), Beidou Navigation Satellite System, Galileo Navigation Satellite System, Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS), Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) and a Global Positioning System (GPS) sensormay be used for more reliability.
[0071] In another exemplary embodiment, during the accident when the vehicle has fallen into an underground pit during an accident, since it was underground, both SEVI and satellite communication got disconnected and may never return back. The one or more computing devices 105 may store past location of the vehicle and past data of the sensed one or more attributes. The remote computing devices 105 may continue to send ping requests. If no response has been received for some time then family/friends/ the emergency services may be informed, thereby providing emergency services without delay.
[0072] In another exemplary embodiment, during an accident, an object such as tree(s)may fall on vehicle due to bad weather. If the vehicle is moving then the accident may get detected by the sensors 102 and 103. In response to the accident being detected, the alert signal may be generated and transmitted over SEVI and/or satellite phone to the one or more remote computing devices 105. In another case, when the vehicle is not moving then the remote computing devices 105 may store the same in the form of location. [0073] In an embodiment, the user associated with the vehicle may be rider that may ride the vehicle.
[0074] FIG. 2 illustrates an exemplary representation of vehicle 200 employed with the first set of sensors 102, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. [0075] As illustrated in FIG. 2, the vehicle 200 may be employed with the first set of sensors 102-1, 102-2... 102-17 (collectively termed as 102). Each of these sensors 102 may be of same type or different type or combination thereof. For example, 102-1, 102-3, 102-5

may be of a particular type of sensor such as but not limited to tilt sensor, whereas 102-2, 102-4, 102-6, and 102-8 may be of same type but different that of type of 102-1, 102-3, and 102-5. In an aspect, 102-2, 102-4, 102-6, and 102-8 may be gyroscope. In another exemplary embodiment, 102-1, 102-3, and 102-5 may be of different type- such as but not limited to-102-1 may be tilt sensor, 102-3 may be gyroscope, and 102-5 may be rotation sensor. [0076] FIG. 3 illustrates exemplary units of a control unit 104 in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0077] In an embodiment, the control unit 104 may include one or more processor(s) 302. The one or more processor(s) 302 may be implemented as one or more microprocessors, microcomputers, microcontrollers, digital signal processors, central processing units, logic circuitries, and/or any devices that manipulate data based on operational instructions. Among other capabilities, the one or more processor(s) 302 are configured to fetch and execute computer-readable instructions stored in a memory 304 of the control unit 104. The memory 304 may store one or more computer-readable instructions or routines, which may be fetched and executed to create or share the data units over a network service. The memory 304 may comprise any non-transitory storage device including, for example, volatile memory such as RAM, or non-volatile memory such as EPROM, flash memory, and the like. [0078] In an embodiment, thecontrol unit 104 may also comprise an interface(s) 306. The interface(s) 306 may include a variety of interfaces, for example, interfaces for data input and output devices, referred to as I/O devices, storage devices, and the like. The interface(s) 306 may facilitate communication of control unit 104 with various devices coupled to the control unit 104 such as but not limited to the receiver and transmitter. The interface(s) 306 may also provide a communication pathway for one or more components of the control unit 104. Examples of such components include, but are not limited to, processing engine(s) 308 and database 310.
[0079] In an embodiment, the processing engine(s) 308 may be implemented as a combination of hardware and programming (for example, programmable instructions) to implement one or more functionalities of the processing engine(s) 308. In examples described herein, such combinations of hardware and programming may be implemented in several different ways. For example, the programming for the processing engine(s) 308 may be processor executable instructions stored on a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium and the hardware for the processing engine(s) 308 may comprise a processing resource (for example, one or more processors), to execute such instructions. In the present examples, the machine-readable storage medium may store instructions that, when executed

by the processing resource, implement the processing engine(s) 308. In such examples, the control unit 104 may comprise the machine-readable storage medium storing the instructions and the processing resource to execute the instructions, or the machine-readable storage medium may be separate but accessible to control unit 104 and the processing resource. In other examples, the processing engine(s) 308 may be implemented by electronic circuitry. [0080] The database 310 may comprise data that is either stored or generated as a result of functionalities implemented by any of the components of the processing engine(s) 308. [0081] In an exemplary embodiment, the processing engine(s) 308 may include comparing unit 312, determining unit 314, generating unit 316, and other units 318 such as receiving unit, transmitting unit and so forth. In an embodiment, the comparing unit 312 may be configured to compare the value with the respective first/second threshold. In another embodiment, the determining unit 314 may be configured to determine whether the one or more parameters exceeds the first/second threshold. Based on the determination, the generating unit 316 may be configured to generate one or more alert signals. [0082] It would be appreciated that units being described are only exemplary units and any other unit or sub-unit may be included as part of the control unit 104. These units too may be merged or divided into super-units or sub-units as may be configured. [0083] Therefore, the above-proposed alert system facilitates an efficient mechanism of alerting emergency services about the accident associated with the vehicle of the user. In particular, the alert system may inform the location of the vehicle/user and the one or more parameters associated with the vehicle after the accident to another person/hospital/emergency centre, which facilitates the alert system to provide emergency services without any delay to the user.
[0084] In addition, the alert system may provide an alarm signal to the user when there is chance of accident being occurred. Specifically, the alert system measures one or more parameters pertaining to the movement and/or position of the vehicle and determines whether any parameter is not in safety limit. When any such parameter is not in safety limit, the alert system informs about the parameter not being in safety limit, thereby facilitating the user to bring the parameter in the safety limit. It further reduces the chances of accident being occurred.
[0085] It should be apparent to those skilled in the art that many more modifications besides those already described are possible without departing from the inventive concepts herein. The inventive patient matter, therefore, is not to be restricted except in the spirit of the appended claims. Moreover, in interpreting both the specification and the claims, all terms

should be interpreted in the broadest possible manner consistent with the context. In particular, the terms "includes" and "including" should be interpreted as referring to elements, components, or steps in a non-exclusive manner, indicating that the referenced elements, components, or steps can be present, or utilized, or combined with other elements, components, or steps that are not expressly referenced. Where the specification claims refer to at least one of something selected from the group consisting of A, B, C ... .and N, the text should be interpreted as requiring only one element from the group, not A plus N, or B plus N, and so forth. The foregoing description of the specific embodiments will so fully reveal the general nature of the embodiments herein that others can, by applying current knowledge, readily modify and/or adapt for various applications such specific embodiments without departing from the generic concept, and, therefore, such adaptations and modifications should and are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalents of the disclosed embodiments.
