HelmetChecker uses AI and computer vision to ensure that a rider
is wearing a helmet and has the strap secured. Micro-mobility
operators are able to use HelmetChecker to stop a vehicle from
unlocking until it confirms helmet use or provide incentives to
riders. This is a solution that goes further than warning screens
or pictures that are checked manually post-ride.
“The HelmetChecker has been a game changer for Helbiz and the
value we can bring to cities,” said Salvatore Palella, CEO of
Helbiz. “With 99.7% accuracy, this technology can help other
micro-mobility vendors remain compliant and improve rider safety,
while bringing a new revenue stream for Helbiz.”
There are no SDKs, lengthy integrations or AI engineers needed.
All it requires is passing an image through the HelmetChecker API
and reading the JSON response that includes a verdict and
confidence level reading.
Pricing for the product will be a monthly subscription fee and a
per-API-call fee per image submitted.
This is a product developed by Helbiz Robotics, the company
division focused on innovation in AI and computer vision. To learn
