An article of clothing includes user-protection circuitry, integrated into the article of clothing. The user-protection circuitry includes condition-detection circuitry, which, in operation, generates one or more indications related to an environment of the article of clothing. The user-protection circuitry also includes broadcast circuitry including at least one pulsing device, and control circuitry. The control circuitry, in operation, activates the broadcast circuitry based on the one or more indications related to the environment of the article of clothing generated by the condition-detection circuitry.

A fire extinguishing system is provided for a tire of a vehicle. The fire extinguishing system includes fire extinguishing injectors filled with fire extinguishing chemicals and installed in the vehicle to be able to inject the fire extinguishing chemical to the tire. A fire detection line is installed to connect between the fire extinguishing injectors. Each of the fire extinguishing injectors is configured to inject the fire extinguishing chemical when a fire of the tire is detected through the fire detection line.

A vehicular safety alert assembly includes a first sensing unit that may be positioned on a driver's seat in a vehicle. Thus, the first sensing unit may detect when a driver sits in the driver's seat. The first sensing unit is in electrical communication with the vehicle's alarm system. A second sensing unit may be positioned on a child seat in the vehicle. Thus, the second sensing unit may detect when a child is sitting in the child seat. The second sensing unit is electrically coupled to the first sensing unit. The first sensing unit generates an alarm sequence when the second sensing unit detects the child and the first sensing unit does not detect the driver. The vehicle's alarm system emits an audible alarm when the alarm sequence is generated. Thus, the driver is alerted that the child is unattended in the vehicle.

A method for providing accident parameters to a person outside a vehicle after an accident includes ascertaining a first accident parameter that is representative of the severity and/or a consequence severity using a control unit of the vehicle, and determining a display device of the vehicle that can display the first accident parameter following the accident. The first accident parameter is provided on the determined display, and a second accident parameter that is representative of the severity and/or the accident consequence severity is ascertained. The method also includes receiving a release signal for the second accident parameter from the person outside the vehicle following the accident involving the vehicle, and verifying the release signal for the second accident parameter using the control unit of the vehicle. The second accident parameter is provided on the determined display if the release signal was successfully verified by the control unit of the vehicle.

An illumination control system is configured for operative association with a vehicle lighting system of an emergency vehicle, such as a fire truck or other first responder type of vehicle. The illumination control system includes a video analysis module configured for receiving data from one or more cameras positioned on an exterior of the vehicle, and each camera has an associated region of interest (ROI) defined for a field-of-view for the camera. An artificial intelligence (AI) module is provided to detect whether a person or object of interest has entered the ROI of the camera. The control system includes an algorithm processing module programmed for executing logic associated with one or more decision-making tasks in association with the operation of the AI module. Also, a light control module can be provided for communicating instructions for activating or deactivating various scene lights of the vehicle lighting system.
