QuadSafe Rider-Safety Tool

QuadSafe is a smart rider-safety tracking tool for quad bikes. It has been designed for use by farm businesses serious about improving their safety practices, but it is also suitable for use by recreational and tourism operators. QuadSafe comprises a web-based portal and a companion smartphone app for android, with real-time data on rider behaviour being collected by the app and transferred to the portal for reporting.
The web-based portal is managed by the farm manager, who registers their property and draws safety zones based on their knowledge of the terrain. The farm manager also registers their farm workers and assigns them an experience level. More experienced riders are assigned less stringent safety limits. The farm manager receives reports on rider behaviour based on the speed, slope and bumpiness of the route taken. If a rider rides within their safety limits for a zone, their reported route will appear as green. If they exceed their safety limits, their reported route will be orange, or even red.
The app is installed by the farm worker, who mounts their smartphone on the quad bike. The app collects data from on-board motion sensors in real time, even when out of internet range, and syncs data back to the web-based portal for reporting, as soon as an internet connection is detected. As the farm worker rides around the property, the app monitors their riding behaviour against their safety limits and alerts them in real time.
Quad bikes are integral to farming operations worldwide, but they are one of the leading causes of deaths and serious injuries – which could be avoided with QuadSafe.
