HERE Live Sense SDK

An AI-powered SDK that transforms camera-enabled devices into hazard awareness sensors for drivers

Detect and avoid hazards, in real-time

Drivers face an increasing number of possible distractions. To drive safely, technology can help them focus on what’s coming.

Using the HERE Live Sense SDK, transform a device with a front-facing camera into a second pair of eyes for the driver.

The SDK uses the camera to continuously scan the driver’s environment. AI models built on our decades of experience in advanced vision technology, embedded in the SDK, detect and classify road conditions.

Speed limits, road signs, potholes, construction zones, pedestrians and other safety risks are detected in real-time, improving driver awareness.

Additionally, Live Sense can turn detection into response, providing both audio and visual alerts. Sudden changes such as road closures are communicated in a human voice, in real-time, helping the driver stay at ease and in control at a moment’s notice.

Key differentiators

Improving safety technology

Safety alerts

Notify the driver with audio or visual alerts when possible dangers are detected on the road. Alerts can help users avoid collisions and prepare for route changes.

Wide range of detections

Give drivers comprehensive awareness of their environment for any type of vehicle, by detecting objects and events on the road. The SDK doesn't require internet connectivity or use of a data plan to perform.

Safer route guidance

Provide directions based on the driver's environment for easier navigation. Cameras can detect objects in real time, to give instructions like "Turn left at the stop sign", delivered with a human voice to reduce stress when driving to unfamiliar places.
