AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In a vehicle's water accident, the doors and windows were difficult to open, and the water in the car was flooded, causing the driver and passengers to lose their calmness and miss the opportunity to save themselves.

Method used

Design a vehicle self-rescue device for falling into the water, including an airbag module, a waterfall detection module, a gas supply module and a control module. The water drop detection module detects the water drop signal through the first sensor. After receiving the signal, the control module sends a gas supply signal to the air supply module, inflates the air bag module, lifts the vehicle, and makes it float on the water surface.

Benefits of technology

Effectively avoid vehicles sinking after falling into the water, extend the rescue time of drivers and passengers, increase the probability of survival, and reduce the probability of control module misjudgment of the vehicle into the water.
