World-first interior radar system from Volvo Cars
 

A new interior radar feature developed by our engineers is designed to be accurate and sensitive enough to detect the tiniest movements at sub-millimetre scale such as those of a sleeping toddler. It’s the first such feature to cover the entire interior of the car, including the trunk.

Dear Lord

If you need a car to tell you that you've left a child behind in the car then you're not fit to be a parent.

"US government statistics show that since 1998, more than 900 children in the US have died after being left in hot cars. Heartbreakingly, a majority of hot car deaths occur because someone forgot that their child was in the car at the time.

We want to help ensure that no one will be left behind or forgotten.

Our new interior radar system will first be rolled out as standard, where regulation allows, on the Volvo EX90 that will be revealed on November 9. The feature will also be included in other forthcoming Volvo car models."

If it saves one child it was worth it...

I don't think he's arguing that point tbh and the unsuitable parent is more the point as it won't be only the car that a dumbass like this neglects about a child.

It's also not as cutting edge as it's being made out to be as it seems to be a modded version of the alarm system movement monitoring which has been in all cars for donkeys now.

I'd have gone a step further and had the app demand this once the car is locked "Oi dummy you've left someone behind go back right now or the phone will fry your hand" "And don't let it happen again we're watching you!" :cylon6:

So if there's a gnat in the car somewhere it won't let you lock the car.
