What is CarDroid?



CarDroid is an automotive device made to protect you and the people you care about. It's a complex multifunctional solution running Androidâ„¢ OS. The device is connected to a cloud-based platform for data storage and visualization. CarDroid is an all-sufficient computer which analyzes vehicle data and driver's behavior and sends the information to a personal cloud account.



Life is a chain of random events and sooner or later you realize that you can not control every single thing in it. Nowadays a lot of accidents happen on the road and we think that if we can not prevent these accidents, we should at least find a way to be aware of it in case something bad happens to the people we love. That's why we created CarDroid.







CarDroid can fast and easily make your car smarter thanks to the latest monitoring and safety technologies. It adds a lot of new features to your car. The device provides people with better, safer driving experience and brings comfort to those who worry about their dear ones driving.

These do exist, but they don't run on Android and the data can't be analyzed by the user. Insurance companies use them to record your driving habits and adjust your driver rating. Progressive Insurance is the biggest company that uses them.
