Imagine that you are driving along a road at night and suddenly you have an accident, falling off a cliff with more than 121 metros and stopping at a canyon. This is what happened to a man close to The Angels (in the US state of California), which was saved by the resources Accident Detection e Emergency SOS via satellite yours iPhone 14second information from CBS News.
After the incident, the device detected that an accident had occurred and then informed the emergency services — using a satellite connection — the coordinates referring to the man’s location. Rescuers went to the scene, where they heard the victim’s screams and rescued her using a crane.
RESCUE: At 10:51 pm on Friday, we were alerted to a car [que caiu] 121 meters down a cliff by the driver’s iPhone 14 Crash Detection. The location was on Mount Wilson road. After locating it, we took a helicopter from @LACoFireAirOps. He suffered head trauma @LASDHQ @CVLASD @KCBSKCALDesk @NBCLA @ABC7 @FOXLA
The rescuers pointed out that, if the man’s location had not been sent to the emergency services, the rescue would have taken much longer to be done, so that he might have died of a hemorrhage, since he had suffered a trauma. With no conditions to go out or contact anyone, the iPhone really was essential for the positive outcome of the situation.
When noticing that an accident has occurred, Accident Detection initiates an audible alert and, if it is not discarded by the user, a message with the device’s coordinates is sent to the emergency services. In this case, there was no telephone signal, so the Emergency SOS via satellite made it possible to send using the alternative connection method; in the situation, the coordinates were passed to an Apple center, which contacted the help.
As one of the rescuers described it, “It was basically his phone, by itself, calling for help for him.” If it weren’t for the quick delivery of the location, the rescue might have taken even a few days, which might have made the outcome of the accident not so positive.
It is worth remembering that both features are only available on the iPhone 14 line. In the case of Emergency SOS via satellite, operation is only available in some countries, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Portugal and other regions in Europe.
