The Problem

Roads shouldn't be a gamble.

Blind curve pile-ups

Mountain bends and overtakes you can't see around.

Highway fatigue & micro-sleep

Long-haul drivers lose seconds — and lives.

Unmapped hazards

Cattle, tractors, potholes — no map will warn you.

Dark breakdowns

Stranded vehicles on unlit state highways at night.

The Platform

Vehicles that see beyond their sensors.

A connected safety platform that lets vehicles, infrastructure and road networks share real-time intelligence — helping drivers detect risks earlier and respond faster.

01

Connect

C-V2X PC5 enables direct communication between nearby vehicles and roadside infrastructure — no internet required.

02

Understand

GNSS, CAN, IMU and intelligent algorithms transform raw vehicle and road data into meaningful risk information.

03

Protect

Real-time visual and audio warnings help drivers respond to hazards before they become critical.

Capability Roadmap

Built in phases. Stated honestly.

LaunchTargeted for the first commercial release.

Direct V2V Communication

C-V2X PC5 broadcast of position, speed, heading, acceleration, braking status, vehicle type and safety events.

Multi-Vehicle Broadcast

One vehicle warns many. No pairing required — every compatible unit in range receives the event.

360° Cooperative Awareness

A live awareness layer built from messages received from surrounding connected vehicles.

Forward Collision Warning

Relative position, speed, heading and trajectory fused into a time-to-collision estimate with threshold alerts.

Emergency Electronic Brake Light

Hard-braking events propagate instantly — even when the braking vehicle is hidden from view.

Blind Intersection Warning

Crossing-path detection between vehicles that cannot see each other around buildings and blind corners.

Emergency Vehicle Alert

Authenticated ambulance, fire and police broadcasts with direction, distance and warning priority.

Road Hazard Warning

Potholes, debris, stalled vehicles, flooding and obstructions shared with nearby vehicles.

GNSS Positioning

Continuous positioning underpinning V2X messages, hazard location and trip context.

CAN / Vehicle Data Integration

Speed, RPM, engine and braking parameters where the vehicle's CAN implementation supports it.

IMU Motion Intelligence

Acceleration, braking, cornering and impact detection fused with GNSS for robust motion data.

Local Edge Processing

Safety-critical computation runs on-device and keeps working in cellular dead zones.

Intelligent Risk Engine

V2X + GNSS + CAN + IMU combined into a live risk level: Safe, Caution, High Risk, Critical.

Driver HMI & Voice Alerts

Screen, tone, spoken warning and LED indicator — understandable in under a second.

Event Data Recording

Local timeline of braking, warnings, risk escalation and vehicle state for later analysis.

The commercial implementation is designed to follow applicable Indian V2X, telecom, automotive and cybersecurity requirements.

A category of its own.

Other devices track, record or rely on the cloud. RIK is the only aftermarket platform that lets vehicles protect each other — directly, instantly and offline.

Not an app. A network.

Community apps depend on phone connectivity and crowd reports. RIK vehicles talk directly to each other over C-V2X — sub-second alerts, no towers, no crowd needed.

Not a camera. A guardian.

Dashcams and ADAS kits only see what the lens sees. RIK sees around corners, through fog and beyond the vehicle ahead — because other vehicles tell it what's coming.

Not a tracker. A shield.

Fleet trackers tell owners where a vehicle was. RIK protects the driver while it's moving — collision warnings, fatigue detection and crash eCall built in.

Built for Indian roads.

Stray cattle, unmarked speed breakers, dark state highways, patchy networks. RIK's models and offline-first design are trained and engineered for exactly this.
