There is no good place to have a car crashbut some places are worse than others. In a foreign country, for instance,_____to explain via cellphone that you are upside down in a ditch when you cannot speak the local language can fatally delay the arrival of the emergency services.
But an answer may be at hand. Researchers funded by the European Commission are beginning tests of a system called E-merge that_____senses when a car has crashed and sends a text message telling emergency services in the local language that the accident has taken place.
The system was_____by ERTICO, a transport research organization based in Brussels, Belgium. Cars are fitted with a cellphone-sized device attached_____the underside of the dashboard which is activated by the same sensor that triggers the airbag in a crash. The device_____a cellphone circuit, a GPS positioning unit, and a microphone and loudspeaker.
It registers the severity of the crash by_____the deceleration data from the airbags sensor. Using GPS information, it works out which country the car is in, and from this it determines_____which language to compose an alert message detailing precise location of the accident.
The device then automatically makes a call to the local emergency services_____. If the cars occupants are conscious, they can communicate with the operator_____the speaker and microphone.
E-merge also transmits the vehicles make, model, color and license number, and its heading when it crashed, which in turn indicates on which side of a multi-lane highway it ended up.
