A revolutionary new ‘smart’ seatbelt system named HARKEN is being developed by the Biomechanics Institute in Valencia, Spain. \u00a0<\/span><\/h1>\n

The technology involved includes a sensor which wakes you up if you are in danger of falling asleep at the wheel, along with a device to measure the driver’s heart rate and breathing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Should the device find that the heart rate drops too much, a warning alarm sounds.<\/span><\/p>\n

If and when the technology finds its way into production vehicles, it could be a potentially life-saving development which could help reduce KSI (Killed or Seriously Injured) figures. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As anyone who regularly reads my posts\u00a0will know, I am not a huge fan of the unnecessary use of vehicle technology in general, however I feel that on this occasion such a development would be welcomed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
