“Every day, thousands of drivers travel on highways where visibility is low and danger is high. One of the most unpredictable threats they face is sudden animal crossings. These moments happen in seconds, but the impact can be devastating—leading to severe injuries, loss of life, vehicle damage, and countless wildlife deaths. This problem is especially common during night travel, where headlights are simply not enough. Seeing this issue around me, especially on rural and forest-connected roads, inspired me to build a solution that can protect both humans and animals. That is how our venture began— with a simple question: ‘How can technology make our roads safer?’
Our solution is an intelligent thermal-based animal detection system designed to identify animals on the road even in complete darkness. Using a thermal sensor, a fast microcontroller, and a real-time alert system, the device detects heat signatures of animals, processes them instantly, and alerts the driver with a clear visual warning. This gives drivers those extra seconds they need to slow down or stop—often making the difference between a safe journey and a tragic accident.
The beauty of our system lies in its simplicity, affordability, and effectiveness. Unlike expensive automotive detection systems, we aim to create a product that is accessible to regular drivers, transport vehicles, school buses, and fleet operators. Built with reliable hardware and designed for rough road conditions, our product ensures consistent performance wherever it is used.
Over the past months, we have studied accident patterns, spoken to drivers, analyzed high-risk zones, and tested early prototypes. Every conversation reinforced the same truth: people want safer roads, and they want a solution that genuinely works in real-world conditions. Our venture is not just a product—it is a safety movement. By reducing collisions, we also protect wildlife, support conservation efforts, and reduce financial losses caused by frequent accidents.
Our next steps include refining our prototype, expanding testing across different terrains, partnering with transport companies, and preparing for a market-ready launch. With the right support, mentorship, and funding, we believe this solution can scale across highways, logistics networks, and public transportation systems in India and beyond.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: to make road travel safer through innovation that saves lives. We are committed to engineering a future where technology and compassion work together—where every journey is safer, and every life, human or animal, is valued. This is more than a venture; it is a responsibility, and we are ready to lead this change.”
