A system such as system 200 may include a computing device 220 communicating with one or more EM sensing units 230A-230N. As should be understood by one skilled in the art the three sensing units illustrated in FIG. 2 are given as an example only and any number of EM sensing units, including one, can be included in the invention. In some embodiments, EM sensing units 230A-230N may communicate with computing device 220 via either wired or wireless communication using any known protocol (e.g., LAN, Bluetooth and the like).

In some embodiments, EM sensing units 230A-230N may include any sensing unit configured to detect an emission vector of an EM field generated by a component of the vehicle. In some embodiments, units 230A-230N may each include a single EM sensor configured to measure a 3D EM field (e.g., a magnetic field). In some embodiments, units 230A-230N may each include 3 EM sensors, each configured to measure an EM field (e.g., magnetic field) in a single direction. In such embodiments, the EM sensors may be assembled orthogonal to each other, each configured to measure EM field (e.g., a magnetic field) in a specific direction orthogonal to the direction of the field measured by the two other EM sensors. For example, the sensors may be Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) Sensors, such as, Honeywell HMC104, available from Honeywell, Hall Effect sensors, such as, DRV5053 available from Texas Instruments, Coil sensing unit and the like.

According to embodiments of the present invention, a unique Magnetic Field sensor may detect the range of 30 Hz to 30 KHz, while a different and unique EM sensor may detect the range of 500 MHz to 6 GHz.

In some embodiments, EM sensing units 230A-230N may be assembled at the closest locations to the surface of the seat on which the child is sitting. each radiating component. For example, a sensing unit 230A may be assembled behind the child's head. In another example, a sensing unit 230B may be assembled behind the child's back. In yet another example, a sensing unit 230C may be assembled behind the child's legs or arms.

According to embodiments of the present invention, the system 200 is intended to detect radiation emitted from various radiating components of the vehicle. Such components may be any component of the vehicle that radiates an EM radiation (at any spectrum). Some example of radiating components radiating EM radiation may include:

the vehicle's electric motor, the vehicle's battery, the vehicle's electric wires, at least one of the vehicle's computers, the vehicle's power inventers, the vehicle's relay switches, the vehicle's audio or multimedia system, a Bluetooth communication device, a GPS antenna, and the like.

According to embodiments of the present invention, the system 200 may further be connected with an In-Vehicle-Infotainment (IVI) 240, for example, for displaying alerts, measurements and the like; with the vehicle's Telecommunication Unit (TCU) 250 for transferring data to a remote server or a cloud 260; and/or with a User Communication Device (UCD) 270 for example, for displaying alerts, measurements and the like and transferring data to a remote server or a cloud 260.

It will be appreciated that the system 200 may be wirely connected with the vehicle for the purpose of, for example, transferring alerts, data and the like and/or receiving power. Alternatively, the system 200 may be wirelessly connected with the TCU 250 and/or the UCD 270 for the purpose of, for example, transferring alerts, data and the like. In such cases or the like, the system may use at least one battery (not shown) as a power source.

Reference is now made to FIG. 3 which is a flowchart 300 of an exemplary method of electromagnetic (EM) radiation detection to be executed by at least one processor (e.g., controller 120 of computing device 110) according to embodiments of the present invention. In step 310, the processor may receive one or more indications of EM fields generated, for example, by one or more radiating components. For example, controller 120 may receive from one or more EM sensing units 230A-230N the size and direction of the EM field detected due to operation of one or more of the vehicle's radiating components.

In some embodiments, controller 120 may be intended to calculate indications related to emission vectors of EM field based on received operation parameters, for example, by calculating the size and direction of the magnetic field measured at an examined location.

In some embodiments, receiving the one or more indications may be conducted at predetermined time intervals. For example, one or more indications may be received from at least one sensing unit 230A-230N or may be calculated every several seconds, for example, every 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, or 4 second. In some embodiments, the time interval may be determined such that it will not exceed the maximum allowed exposure time according to safety regulation (e.g., 6 minutes). In some embodiments, the longer the time of exposure the higher is the risk for harmful damage (either to a human, an animal or an electronic component). Accordingly, a maximum allowed exposure time is defined by the International Commission on Non -Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). World Health Organization (WHO) instructions as well as regulatory bodies worldwide instructions derive from ICNRIP's recommendations. ICNIRP update its recommendations from time to time.

In step 320, the EM field is detected by at least one of the at least one sensing unit 230A-230N.

The EM field may be calculated using known in the art equations.

It will be appreciated that any equation for calculating radiation or radiation over time may be used.

The Exposure time is defined as the maximum time one is allowed to be exposed to a certain radiation without being harmed.

In step 330, at least one sensing unit, having an intensity of the calculated EM field, higher than one or more threshold values, may be identified. In some embodiments, the one or more threshold values may be determined based on at least one of: regulatory requirements, manufacturers' decision, fleet management decision and the like. In some embodiments, sensing units located at different areas of the safety seat may be identified using different threshold values. For example, different threshold values may be determined for EM filed near the head of the child and for EM filed near the legs of the child. For example, the threshold values near the head of the child may be determined based on regulation set by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), the World Health Organization (WHO) instructions as well as regulatory bodies worldwide instructions derive from ICNRIP's recommendations. ICNIRP update its recommendations from time to time. In another example, the threshold levels/values may be determined based on or defined by EMC compliance for vehicles set by, for example, the manufacturer of the vehicle. The electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the ability of electrical equipment and systems to function acceptably in their electromagnetic environment.

In some embodiments, controller 120, may send to a user (e.g., via UCD 270) measurements and/or alerts that the levels of EM radiation in at least some location in the area of interest exceeded at least one threshold value. In some embodiments, the measurements and/or the alerts may be stored in the database or the cloud 260.

Therefore, in step 340, controller 120, may send at least one of measurements and alerts to at least one of IVI 240, TCU 250, remote server or cloud 260 and UCD 270.

It will be appreciated that step 340 is optional.

Reference is now made to FIG. 4 which is a flowchart 400 of another exemplary method of electromagnetic (EM) radiation detection to be executed by at least one processor (e.g., controller 120 of computing device 110) according to embodiments of the present invention.

In step 410, at least one sensing unit continuously (according to predetermined periods) measures electro-magnetic radiation levels and send measurement to computing device 220.

In step 420, the computing device 220 processes the measurements and calculates the radiation level in each sensing unit's location.

In step 425, the system may optionally display a graphical representation of the radiation levels in each location.

As long as the radiation levels are below the predetermined threshold, the process goes back to step 410.

If at least one radiation level is above threshold, in step 430, the system alerts and may provide a graphical representation of the location in which the high radiation was detected.

If at least one radiation level is above threshold for a long period of time, in step 435, the system alerts and may provide a graphical representation of the location in which the high radiation was detected. The process goes back to step 410.

According to embodiments of the present invention, step 435 may additionally be followed by step 440 in which the system may optionally send the data to at least one of IVI 240, TCU 250, remote server or cloud 260 and UCD 270. The data may include measured and/or calculated radiation levels over time, measurements, alerts etc.

It will be appreciated that the method of FIG. 4 may end before step 430 is performed or after step 430 is completed.

In such a case, step 430 may additionally be followed by step 440 in which the system may optionally send the data to at least one of IVI 240, TCU 250, remote server or cloud 260 and UCD 270. The data may include measured and/or calculated radiation levels over time, measurements, alerts etc.

It will be appreciated that the system of the present invention may be installed in any safety seat, such as presented, for example, in FIG. 5. Examples of safety seats may be, but not limited to, an infant car seat, a rear-facing car seat, a convertible seat, an All-in-One seat, a combination seat, a child car seat, a booster seat or any other safety seat.

Therefore, a system and method according to some embodiments of the present invention may allow increasing the safety of children sitting in a safety seat, by detecting and alerting regarding exposure of harmful EM radiation.
