The main objective of this challenge is to reduce road accidents in Portugal by preventing distracted driving due to mobile phones through promoting self-awareness regarding road safety and simultaneously provide police with more effective management and detection of these distracted driving infractions.
This challenge intended to find an innovative technological solution which contains a system to detect infractions associated to the continuous manual use of mobile phones by drivers during vehicle circulation, through a non-continuous and random mathematical measurements model, adapted to illicit conditions present in article 84th of the Portuguese Road Code (republished in Decreto-Lei no. 102-B/2020, Annex IV).
