Cellular distractions have become the most significant factor causing road accidents and this includes, unfortunately, also fatal road accidents. For example, a recent study conducted in the United States found that cellular distractions were directly related to no less than 9% of all fatalities in road accidents in the United States in 2019. This is not a unique problem for this country. It is estimated that 20% of accidents in Israel are due to distraction while driving.
So far, most of the tempts to eliminate driving distractions were focusing on campaigns or punishment and deterrence. Unfortunately, both approaches do not really manage to prevent the phenomenon. SaverOne’s approach is different because it precludes the possibility of cellular distraction in advance and does not depend on the goodwill of the driver. Other tech solutions that disable mobile devices are based on less advanced technologies, which do not always know how to differentiate between the various applications. In addition, unlike SaverOne, their use at any given moment depends on the cooperation of the driver – SaverOne is the only solution that expels the driver from the dilemma and is therefore also the only solution that guarantees zero cellular distractions.
Simply put, the SaverOne system disables prohibited applications while driving, such as reading and writing text messages or using apps like Facebook or receiving alerts. In this way, the distraction is avoided even before it occurs.
Absolutely. The SaverOne system is already being marketed to companies, some of which have already implemented the system in regular use after completing a pilot phase. Among the companies that have already purchased the system are, among others, leading companies such as the Israel Electric Company, Tnuva, ICL, Flying Cargo, and the public transportation company Kavim.
The SaverOne system is suitable for any company that owns a vehicle fleet or provides its employees with a leasing solution. A vehicle in which the system is installed will provide the driver and passengers with a vital safety envelope that significantly reduces the chance of a car accident. Hence, for companies like moving companies, couriers or transportation, or anyone who owns a transportation array as part of their core business activity, the SaverOne system meets their critical needs.
At present, the system’s marketing is not yet open to private customers but only to commercial and public customers. We hope that in the future, we will be able to market the system to end customers as well.
The system provides great value not only to the driver but also to the vehicle fleet manager, who enjoys practical management tools such as:
Once the SaverOne system has been installed in the vehicle and an action plan has been defined, the driver is free from doing anything. Once the car is driven, the system recognizes its smartphone so that throughout the trip, the driver can only use applications that have been set ‘allowed’ by the system administrator.
The system blocks prohibited applications such as sending and reading text messages or browsing social networks and allows the driver to use applications such as navigation software, music player or talking on the phone using a headset, or any other application that the drivers’ company chooses.
Every vehicle fleet has a manager authorized to permit adding apps and determines which apps are allowed while driving.
SaverOne trains its vehicle fleet managers in every aspect of system operation so that you can contact them with any questions. In addition, the company’s service department staff will be happy to assist and answer any questions by phone: 2632 *.
The “User Information” page [link] also contains detailed and extended information.
Launching the SaverOne application is very efficient and cost-effective and consumes almost no mobile data. The average trip consumes a total of 0.5 megabytes.
The effect is negligible. Running the application hardly affects the device’s energy consumption and depletes the battery.
No. The only transmissions from the system are in the BLE protocol (BLE 4.0 Bluetooth), which is considered a smart protocol with low energy consumption. This protocol is implemented in the communication of smartphones with other components like handsfree, audio devices, or any other device in wireless communication that supports this protocol and is not unique to the SaverOne system.
The application can be installed on most 3rd generation smartphones. This includes the Android devices from version 7 and up and the iOS devices from version 14 and above.
Location services are part of the BLE protocol facility and the system uses them to detect vehicle entry and application activation. It is important to add that SaverOne will not use this information for any other uses.
Due to the safety margins of the driver’s area, where cellular surfing is prohibited, it is defined from the door of the driver’s seat to the middle of the passenger seat. Hence, a passenger who holds his smartphone on the side closest to the driver will insert the device into the area where the SaverOne system disables prohibited mobile applications. Therefore, our recommendation to the passenger is to use a device closer to the passenger door than to the driver.
The system detects if a mobile device is not connected to it in the driver’s environment. The beep aims to draw the driver’s attention to the unfamiliar device so that he can either connect the device or keep it out of reach.
Yes. The SaverOne system has no control over the vehicle’s multimedia system.
SaverOne operates in a SaaS format (Software as a Service), which means a permanent link to the company’s cloud, which in most cases allows for efficient and immediate remote support. As part of the service, the company’s personnel will assimilate the systems into the vehicle fleet and provide training to the relevant functionaries and managers. In addition, the company has a service department that is available by phone and, if necessary, will also arrive at the customer’s yard.
