Every year over 1.3M people die on roads. In recent years the fatality and collisions rates have only gone up, reversing a several decade long downward trend. So even while cars are becoming safer, this recent increase is largely attributed to distraction caused by use of mobile phones while driving. Zendrive, a company committed to making roads safer, is using the same smartphone data to understand unsafe driving behaviors like aggression, adherence to rules of the road and distraction. Using sophisticated machine learning techniques and massive amount of data (150B miles of data over 50M users) Zendrive has built world’s leading driving behavior analysis platform that has already helped save hundreds of lives. This data and analysis also find wide variety of usage in insurance, city planning and driver coaching. In his talk Pankaj Risbood, Co-Founder and VP Data, Engineering at Zendrive will take you on a fascinating journey of measuring driving behavior, quantifying risk and creating incentives for drivers to adopt safer driving habits.
