Its passenger monitoring system based on micro radar utilizes biometrics to detect the location and state of each person in the car. The system monitors several biometric signals of passengers, including respiration rate, heart rate, and heart rate variability. [3] Sensor system can be placed anywhere in the car. [4]

Caaresys' product portfolio includes three products: VitalCaare (monitors car occupants' condition), BabyCaare (child presence detection) and CabinCaare (monitors car occupancy). [5]

Caaresys has partnered with a number of manufacturers, including SMK Electronics and Infineon Technologies, delivering passenger sensing systems. [6] [7]

In September 2022 the company was acquired by Harman International, joining its automotive unit. It is planned that Caaresys' technologies will augment Harman's in-cabin monitoring systems. [8]

A collision avoidance system (CAS), also known as a pre-crash system, forward collision warning system, or collision mitigation system, is an advanced driver-assistance system designed to prevent or reduce the severity of a collision. In its basic form, a forward collision warning system monitors a vehicle's speed, the speed of the vehicle in front of it, and the distance between the vehicles, so that it can provide a warning to the driver if the vehicles get too close, potentially helping to avoid a crash. Various technologies and sensors that are used include radar (all-weather) and sometimes laser (LIDAR) and cameras to detect an imminent crash. GPS sensors can detect fixed dangers such as approaching stop signs through a location database. Pedestrian detection can also be a feature of these types of systems.
