Falling asleep at the wheel is one of the road's most extreme dangers, but the Anti Sleep Pilot App will help combat driver fatigue. The application builds on the Anti Sleep Pilot gadget, which helps calculate how alert you are during your drive. Using the phone’s GPS and accelerometer, it determines the driver’s reflexivity by conducting simple tests, like pushing a button.
If the Anti Sleep Pilot App deems that you are unfit to drive, it sounds and flashes to alert you to take a preventative break.
