PoliceProtect:BeepBeep

This solution aims to protect police from criminals & prospective criminals traveling in vehicles. It reduces probability of an officer on duty stationed at a police post or checkpoint being attacked by a vehicle (criminals carrying vehicle).

The technical system alerts officer of a 'misbehaving' car sometime before latter tries to attack former.

Suppose 100 cars cross a given checkpoint one fine day wherein officer(s) are on duty.

a) 95 give no alerts. System signals no-beep & lights blue indicating guarded alert/normal risk. It still doesn't mean that officer will not be careful with these 'normal' cars.

b) System signals single-beep & lights blue indicating elevated/significant risk on these remaining 5 cars now profiled as 'suspicious' cars.The police be more cautious, ready with all self-defenses regarding these.

Out of these 5, 4 turnout normal-it was just that these vehicles didn't conform to a pattern earlier but later behaved normal.

c) The remaining 1 car turns-out criminal or 'bad'. As it closes by, System signals beep-beep & lights orange indicating high risk. Officer gets fully prepared to defend him/her self and take appropriate action in accordance with law.

Iterative prototyping was done earlier using toy cars, laser torches, etc. & thereafter on a real stretch of road by 3-4 real cars arranged to pass by. A dummy police post was also developed at road end. The laser torches were identical in both prototypes and the purpose was fulfilled.
