Forbes reports that Yandex has begun testing a blocking system in its kicksharing service.
If there is more than one person on the electric scooter, it will smoothly slow down to a pedestrian speed of 5 km/h. As soon as he gets off the scooter, the speed will be restored.
While tests are being carried out at test sites, implementation accuracy is 95%. To determine two people, a special algorithm takes into account more than 120 movement parameters, for example, the difference in acceleration and the angle of inclination when turning.
The algorithm is implemented only with a sharp increase in load. That is, due to a heavy backpack, the SIM will not slow down.
They plan to introduce the measures next year in the spring. [Forbes]
