In addition to navigation and trip logging, Sidekick 3.0 for iOS now analyzes your camera feed and act as your second pair of eyes to remind you of things you may have missed.
- Pedestrians / cyclists directly ahead
- STOP signs
- School zones
- Uneven roads

Traffic accidents remain to be #1 cause of kids injury, despite reduced traffic during COVID-19. Mounted smartphones can act as a second pair of eyes for drivers, sounding reminders as it detects pedestrians, cyclists, other merging vehicles, STOP signs and school zone signs. The technology is not as effective as dedicated systems with auto-braking in new vehicles, but it's much more accessible, requiring only a phone mount. Hope this helps #SaveKidsLives. Would be great if you can give it a try. I am looking forward to hearing your feedback.
