System and method for anti texting in cell phones during vehicle driving

摘要

The embodiments herein provide a system and method for enabling anti-texting feature in a cell phone when the cell phone is operated by a driver in a dangerous manner such as text messaging or holding the cell phone to the driver's ear while driving a vehicle. The system creates a green zone or life zone around a driver's seat that controls the driver not to participate in distracting activities while driving a vehicle. The system comprises a sensor module, Bluetooth transmitter, and a Bluetooth receiver installed in driver's cell phone. The Bluetooth transmitters are placed at different locations in vehicle and analyzes the driver behavior while driving the vehicle. The sensor in vehicle monitors the driver behavior and transmits appropriate signals. The Bluetooth receiver receives the signals from the transmitter and disables keypad interface of the driver cell phone through an anti-texting application.

1. A system for preventing texting and making calls by a driver of a vehicle during a vehicle driving condition, the system comprising:
a sensor module for detecting a vehicle running condition, wherein the sensor module comprises: an ignition detection module configured to detect a drive condition of the vehicle by using motion sensors and speed sensors or key position sensors; an alcohol tester module configured to analyse a breathing of the driver to detect a drunken condition of the driver; a face detection module configured to detects a facial expression of the driver by using an imaging sensor; and a gesture recognition module configured to detect hand/head gestures of the driver to send the analyzed data to a processing module to output a disable signal; a Bluetooth transmitter mounted on a windshield or dash board of a vehicle for creating a safe life zone or green zone around a driver seat; anda Bluetooth receiver;
wherein the Bluetooth transmitter sends a disable signal to the Bluetooth receiver to prevent texting operation or making calls, when the driver of the vehicle operates a mobile communication device for texting or messaging or initiating a call while driving a vehicle based on a sensor output, and wherein the Bluetooth transmitter is configured to disable texting operation or a call initiating operation in the mobile communication used by the driver, even when the driver uses the mobile communication device of the passengers for texting operation or making calls, and wherein the Bluetooth transmitters are combined with the anti-texting application and wherein the anti-texting application is not disabled by the vehicle driver, and wherein the anti-texting application provides special button to access the texting feature in the cell phone while driving the vehicle for a pre-set count in a month or during an emergency condition, and wherein the anti-texting application analyses the behavior characteristics or patterns of the driver and further creates a profile for the driver in a driver mode box, wherein the driver mode box is configured to get updates from anti-texting server and implements the updated rules in real time road scenarios.
