SAFETY
Dear Sir /Madam,
We have devised a
set of
systems, which can reduce the damage caused to vehicles and deaths and
injury
caused to Passengers and Pedestrians in vehicular accidents by more
than SEVENTY-FIVE
PERCENT
We have already
filed and
are in process of filing further, multiple and appropriate Disclosure
Documents,
Provisional Patent Applications at the United States Patent & Trademarks
Office (USPTO), and also applications
under the
Patent Co-operation Treaty at World Intellectual Property
Organization
(WIPO) at Geneva.
There is
absolutely no doubt that our idea is new and innovative.
Moreover, we
are very confident and very sure that this will help reducing/minimizing
human
suffering to a very large extent. There is no doubt that the product
devised by
us will change the face of the earth forever.
This project has the
potential of considerably reducing human trauma and misery and also saving
substantial amounts of money by way of damage to property etc.
We are open to all options
including outright sale, licensing and their permutations and combinations.
Also, we can incorporate a company anywhere a world for implementing this
project.
We are lookingfor
the followings:
01.Business
consultancy and advice :-
regarding
the most viable, practical and profitable course of action under the
circumstances and also consultancy on patents & protection of
intellectual
property.
02.Financial,
Technical and/or Commercial Collaborations:-
with any collaborating agency including Angel Investors, Venture
Capitalists,
Government Agencies, Automobiles and/or automobile accessories
manufacturers or
in short, any body and every body from anywhere and all over the world.

ANNEXURE
(a) Number of people dying
worldwide -
More than
1.2 million per year =
More than 100,000 per month = More than 3300 per day =
More than 120 per hour = More than 2 per minute = At least 1 person is
dying every 30 seconds
(b) Number of people getting
injured worldwide
- = More than 36 million per year = More than 3 million per month = More
than
100,000 per day = More than 4000 per hour = at least 1 person every
second. (One
person seriously injured every three seconds; one person moderately injured
every three seconds; one person mildly injured every three seconds.)
(c) Current yearly automobile
sales worldwide
- more than 1 Trillion US$.
(d) Number of motorised
automobiles worldwide -
more than 1 Billion pieces
(e) Daily loss caused due to
vehicular accidents
worldwide More than 2 Billion US$ per day.
(2% of the worldwide Gross National Product of
more than 36.5
Trillion US $ = More than 730 Billion US$ per year= More than 2 Billion
US$ per
day)
a) The introduction of such technology will
dramatically
reduce the expenses of auto-insurance. This reduction of insurance cost
will be
at par with or even more that the expenses incurred towards the
introduction of
such technology in modern day vehicles. Accordingly, the Life Insurance
premiea
will also undergo drastic reduction. Additionally, because of saving of
lives,
the outgo of the insurance companies will reduce substantially.
b) As per the WHO studies and projections, road
accidents
occupy the number nine positions by way of causes of death in the world
today.
It is projected by WHO that by the year 2020 they will occupy the number
three
positions, next only to Heart disease and Depression. By introduction of
this
technology, we are sure that this will not happen. On the contrary there
will be
massive reduction in the number of deaths due to road accidents and road
accidents may not figure on the list of major causes of death, in the year
2020
at all.
c) This technology will therefore, make all
vehicles cheaper
and safer. Not only will the cost be reduced, safety which is priceless in
itself, will also be greatly enhanced.
As and when the regular Patent Application is
filed and
patent is granted, the life of the patent will be 20 years. Even at the
current
levels, with road accidents placed at number nine on the WHO list as a major
cause of death, there is a daily loss of Two Billion US$. Even at the
present
level, over a period of twenty years, without any interest and without any
compounding, this loss works out to be: 2 Billion US$ X 365 days X 20
years -
14.6 Trillion US$.
d) Our technology will ensure that at least
SEVENTY-FIVE
PERCENT of the above losses are prevented. Such figure works out to be
more that
10 Trillion US$. It is important to note that this is the projection at the
current level. As per the future projections, the incidents of road
accidents
are expected to increase. Hence, the figure is likely to be increase very
substantially. In addition the Time factor and the interest factor will
inflate
this figure further.
e) At the current levels, more than 1.2 million
persons are
dying every year due to road accidents. Even at the current rates, more
than 24
million lives will be lost in road accidents over the next twenty years
(i.e.
life of the patent, when granted). Besides, at the current levels. 3.2
million
people are injured every year. In the next twenty years, the number of
people
injured due to road accidents, will therefore be more than 70
million.
f) If we add to that the personal, physical and
psychological
traumas to those directly involved in and also to those who are associated
with
the people involved in the road accidents. The trauma and the misery and
henceforth the value of the savings, are all unmeasurable in quantities,
presently known to human kind.
g) Considering the figures and dynamics as
explained
hereinabove, it may not be improper or out of place to compare this
technology
with the introduction of electricity, computer or aircrafts in terms of its
value to mankind.
h) The benefits of this technology will be so
obvious and
essential that, in the very near future, the use of this technology will
become
unavoidable. It should and will become mandatory by law, to install such
technology and the installation of such technology should and will be a
pre-requisite for granting or renewal of the registration and license of all
vehicles in future.
i) As described hereinabove; this technology and
its utility
are incomparable, outthought of, and unheard of till date. It will open a
new
floodgate in human travel and safety measures. In future, it can and will be
applied to other mode of transport, like aircrafts and trains also.
a- OUTRIGHT
SALE
(a) Immediate outright sale of the idea and the
concept along
with our filed Applications for one time lump sum consideration.
(b) Further development of the concept and
further filing of
Patent and all Patent related applications, before taking steps as
outlined in
"a".
The process (b) will obviously increase the
realization in
terms of price.
b- LICENCING
OPTIONS
i) New vehicles- Granting of licenses to
manufacturers
of automobiles, individually or collectively, all over the world for
incorporation in the automobiles to be manufactured in future on fixed
time or
per piece basis.
ii) Conversion of existing vehicles - To
independent
agents for conversion of the existing more than 1 Billion vehicles all
over the
world.
c - COMBINED
OPTIONS
A collaborative arrangement with some private
and/or
government agency wherein we receive a certain down payment and then jointly
distribute the licensing rights on a pre-decided sharing (partnership)
arrangement.
1) In case any/all processes and systems
described by us are
incorporated in the design of new
vehicles
and the new vehicles are manufactured in accordance with the modified
designs,
the cost escalation may not be more than 5% to 8%, and the safety and the
protection will be ten times (More than) the price escalation. Hence, drop
in
insurance premier will compensate for the cost escalation.
2) In case, the existing vehicles
are modified, the cost involved will be approximately 10% to 15% of the
value of
the vehicle. But partial modifications at a lower cost, which will give
partial
protection, may also be carried out. As a thumb rule, the cost of
modification
in percentage terms will be about one fifth of the percentage of safety and
protection provided.
3) In case the value of the vehicles is low or
the life of
the vehicle is about to expire, the partial modifications may be
practically and
economically viable, as incorporation onto a new vehicle is relatively less
expensive and more protective.
4) There are more than 1 Billion motor vehicles
in the world
at present. Besides there are an unspecified number of non-motorized
ehicles.
5) Almost all of them can be converted in phased
manner to a
variable degree. The cost of conversion will be directly proportional to
their
current market value and the safety shield to be generated there
from.
6) Among the motorised vehicles, the conversion
cost may work
out of few dollars for every percent of safety shield created The exact
calculation can be worked out, but over all, some of the methods may provide
more safety at lower cost compared to the other which may differ in
efficiency.
7) Even if we consider a very vague conservative
and
approximate cost of conversion of 300 US$ per vehicle, the conversion
industry
works out to be worth 300 Billion US$.
8) Realising the potential of the product in
terms of human
safety, it will be reasonable to presume that majority of such conversion
will
be completed over a period of three years from the starting
date.
9) As pointed hereinabove, the size of the
conversion
industry may be estimated to, in the range of 100 Billion US$ per year
over the
next three years.
10) Alternatively, considering the diversity of
available
motorised vehicles all over the world, conversion licensing can also be
commercially viable proposition. For such conversion, licenses can be
granted
on-line, on receipt of on-line payments. In that case, different rates for
granting conversion to vehicles having specific registration numbers can be
granted in accordance with and in proportion to the size, carrying
capacity and
the engine power of the vehicle.
11) In case, licensing is done, the creation and
installation
of the concerned systems will be done by the end-user, as per his
circumstances
and needs. However, piracy is likely to be a major problem in such
licensing.
12) It is likely that as and when the systems are
introduced
in the motorised vehicles, unusual and unprecedented demand of new
vehicles is
created. This will result in massive rejection of the vehicles currently
playing
all over the world and stimulate an entirely new market as far as motorised
vehicle is concerned. The size of such market is difficult to either
comprehend
and/or estimate.
P.S.
1) Some of the figures have been rounded off but
generally
the figures are correct.
2) We have tried to keep this communication brief
and to the
point. More details, including website references are available with us
and can
be provided, if required.
