interesting work. How do you detect the crash? You take the different of speed. Is it really effective? Did you test it?

Using accelerometer I believe . If we detect a shake after certain threshold we will mark it as a crash. ( may be fine for good roads with no potholes and speed bumps - not usable for bad roads ) I haven't tested it properly . May be we can do some test after tweaking the shake threshold.

I see. Yeah maybe we need some more complicated ways of crash detection. I will test it and let you know. Thanks.

Sent from my phone. Pls excuse typos and brevity.
