Critical dispatch information from your MDT, directly displayed in your line of sight
We at HeadsUp911 specialize in the design and development of heads-up display (HUD) systems, tailored for use within emergency vehicles.
These HUD systems, comprising both software and hardware components, are engineered to serve as indispensable tools for first responders—including police, firefighters, and ambulance services—aiding in life-saving efforts and reducing stress in critical situations
The police officer’s in-car computer, tablet, or cell phone provides all necessary dispatch information for responding to calls for service. However, it also creates the greatest danger for the officer.
The distraction of the mobile data terminal causes an officer to take their attention away from the road while responding to critical dispatches.
Officer distraction has been proven to be a huge safety issue NATIONWIDE:
Reading or typing messages significantly slows the reaction time of drivers, causes more significant lane deviations, and increases the length of time drivers look away from the road.
– Caird et al., 2014
Typing or reading a message while traveling 55 miles per hour equates to driving the length of a football field with your eyes closed.
Any glance away from the road for two seconds or more increases the risk of crashes by 24 times.
– Oregon State University, 2015
At 65 miles per hour, an average driver’s reaction time is approximately 143 feet, and the braking distance is over 200 feet. This is a total stopping distance of approximately 350 feet. The overall stopping distance is potentially doubled by taking your eyes off the road for only 2 seconds.
