New V2X Module Enhances Safety for Cyclists and E-Scooters

Autotalks, a leading company in Israel, is set to revolutionize the safety of cyclists and e-scooter riders with the launch of their innovative V2X communication system. This cutting-edge technology aims to address the alarming statistic that 75% of bike and scooter accidents are caused by drivers failing to notice cyclists on the road. The new ZooZ3 module, designed to be mounted on handlebars, will facilitate seamless V2X data exchange between cyclists, other vehicles, and roadside units, significantly enhancing safety on the streets.

The core of the V2X unit lies in Autotalks' state-of-the-art TEKTON3-BIKE third-generation System on Chip (SoC), tailored specifically for bike manufacturers seeking advanced collision prevention capabilities. The ZooZ3 module comes equipped with built-in V2X firmware optimized for micromobility safety applications, including features like "Intersection Collision Warning" (ICW) and "Rear Collision Warning" (RCW). Moreover, the module offers extensive customization options, expansion capabilities, robust security features, and global compatibility, making it a versatile and reliable solution for enhancing road safety.

Building upon the success of the TEKTON3-BIKE chipset, Autotalks is unveiling the ZooZ3 module as a next-generation V2X bicycle safety device that promises effortless installation on handlebars. Serving as a reference platform for micromobility applications, the ZooZ3 module is geared towards facilitating large-scale pilot programs and providing timely alerts to cyclists in potentially hazardous situations. By leveraging V2X technology, cyclists can receive real-time alerts on their smartphones via the Autotalks ZooZ App, empowering them to proactively respond to road dangers and navigate safely.

In a groundbreaking collaboration, Autotalks has joined forces with Cohda Wireless to develop the world's first integrated V2X System on Chip (SoC), further solidifying their commitment to advancing road safety for all road users. The ZooZ3 module extends V2X capabilities to a wide range of bicycles and scooters, seamlessly integrating with the Autotalks ZooZ App to deliver critical safety alerts directly to users' devices. The user-friendly interface of the app sets a new standard for safety user interfaces on bike computers, offering a seamless and intuitive experience for cyclists.

Hagai Zyss, the CEO of Autotalks, expressed his enthusiasm for the new micromobility solutions, stating, "The vision of zero accidents can only be realized by prioritizing the safety of cyclists and other vulnerable road users. Our integration-ready product line, based on our 3rd generation chipset, is designed to meet the diverse needs of cyclists while ensuring affordability and accessibility. With this innovative technology, we aim to provide every cyclist with the superior protection they deserve on the road." For more information, visit www.auto-talks.com.
