RideSafe is an open source project which detects bikers' falls. This is possible thanks to intelligent algorithms and data collection.
Our smartphones have accelerometers to measure acceleration and gyroscope forces of individuals, these data can be used to analyse the behaviour: when walking, running, biking and even falling ! The self learning algorithms are able to improve the detection of a fall by analysing such data.

The RideSafe backend is in charge of receiving data from clients. It is Spring Boot + Kotlin based application backed by Cassandra database
This is a simple service that only receipts Acceleration data and store it into its database.
Examples
curl -X POST --data '{"timestamp": 1234567890, "acc_x": 0.323149, "acc_y": -2.5231, "acc_z": 9.28387237, "gyr_x": 917, "gyr_y": -46, "gyr_z": -148}' -H "Device-Id: your_device_uuid" -H "Content-type: application/json" http://localhost:8093/api/v1/acceleration
curl -X POST --data '[{"timestamp": 1234567890, "acc_x": 0.323149, "acc_y": -2.5231, "acc_z": 9.28387237, "gyr_x": 917, "gyr_y": -46, "gyr_z": -148}, ...]' -H "Device-Id: your_device_uuid" -H "Content-type: application/json" http://localhost:8093/api/v1/accelerationsBasically, you need to generate an unique device id (mandatory) and put it as request header to store data correctly into database.
... -H "Device-Id: your_device_uuid" ...
To make data storing valuable, sender can categorize it's activity to make predictive model more accurate.
curl -X POST --data '{"start_timestamp": 1234567890, "end_timestamp": "2334567890", "activity_type": "MOTORBIKING", "bike_type": "ROADSTER", "road_type": "CITY", "road_condition": "GOOD"}' -H "Device-Id: your_device_uuid" -H "Content-type: application/json" http://localhost:8093/api/v1/acceleration/form- start_timestamp <-> end_timestamp is the range date in milli seconds of your activity.
- activity_type has to be chosen between the followings: MOTORBIKING, MOTORBIKE_FALLING, MOTORBIKE_PUSHING, WALKING, JOGGING, SITTING, STANDING, SLEEPING, USING_PHONE
- bike_type can be null or: ROADSTER, TRAIL, SPORT, TOURING, SPORT_TOURING, CUSTOM, COLLECTOR
- road_type can be null or: PRIVATE_ROAD, TRACK, CITY, ROAD_ONE_LANE, ROAD_MULTIPLE_LANE, FREEWAY, TRACK_RACE
- road_condition can be null or: GOOD, FAIR, BAD, VERY_BAD
Note: If you aim to use your own RideSafe backend, keep in mind that our data are open as well. You are better to use our provided Android connector and pushing data to [our open backend](#Open backend).
Prerequisites:
Cassandra schema
CREATE KEYSPACE ridesafe WITH REPLICATION = { 'class' : 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor' : 1 };
use ridesafe;
CREATE COLUMNFAMILY data (
device_id text,
user_id bigint,
"timestamp" bigint,

CREATE INDEX data_activity_type_idx ON data (activity_type);
CREATE INDEX data_bike_type_idx ON data (bike_type);
CREATE INDEX data_road_type_idx ON data (road_type);
CREATE INDEX data_road_condition_idx ON data (road_condition);Build app
# Clone this repository
cd ridesafe-backend
# Build app
chmod +x gradlew
./gradlew build
# Run app
java -jar build/libs/rs-backend-0.1.jar
# it's now live on http://localhost:8093You can configure application
cd ridesafe-backend/src/main/resources
vi application.yml
# then you have to rebuild the appInstead of locally install the backend, you can target our backend server which is available at the following web address:

There are many ways to contribute to RideSafe.
- You are developer: You have an idea to make RideSafe better ? You want to clean the code ?.. Just send us a Pull Request :)
- You are data scientist: Take a look at our activity recognition algorithms and tell us what do you think and how to improve them.
- You are motorcycling professional: More we can test, more accurate are algorithms and fall detection. Contact us to see how you can contribute !
RideSafe is used into our Nousmotards app.
RideSafe has been launched by Nousmotards. It is a service platform for bikers, created by 4 engineers and bikers:
We are creating a set of services tailored exclusively to the world of motorcycling! Nousmotards app is available on Mobile (Android, iOS) and on your browser.
We are looking for worldwide partners specialised in motorbike and/or technology.
The "Activity Recognition" project is based on the work of Ludwine Probst, which detects one type of activity from the accelerometer integrated in smartphones and a self-learning algorithm called machine learning.
The data and algorithms are available under the Apache license, this means that the changes and improvements made will be communicated to the community. Commercial use is unrestricted.
