Robotics & AI for Safety

We are a group of high-school students who are on a mission to use robotics and AI-driven technologies to improve road safety in Thailand. 

Our first focus is developing an affordable device to address blind-spot-related motorcycle accidents, a major cause of fatal crashes for over 20 million motorcyclists in Thailand and a ~billion more across developing countries such as China, India, Indonesia, and Vietnam.


1. Motorcycles account for 80+% of road fatalities in Thailand, with 1–2 deaths every hour.


2. Blind-spot crashes are a leading contributor, as Thai motorcyclists are forced to drive on the lane edges and weave between vehicles instead of occupying full lanes like in developed countries.


3. Most motorcyclists are low-income family breadwinners, and accidents frequently trigger devastating economic and social consequences.


We began this project last year, starting with interviews with local riders to better understand their daily pain points. We later sought mentorship from OpenDream, a Thai Social Venture incubator, to deepen our understanding of road safety and regulatory compliance. We also worked with Tae-Jai, a social venture crowdfunding platform, to secure funding for our early development.


Over the next 2-3 years, we plan to develop three prototypes that are progressively more advanced and accessible, starting with our simplest, low-cost, hardware concept. (see more details of the prototype version of “VisionGuard” at this link).  We have since developed and launched MotoSaaS, a software-first, smartphone-powered safety platform designed to scale globally and reach millions of riders without requiring physical installations.

Accomplishments since 2024 Founding  

  • January 2025: Developed and field-tested VisionGuard Prototype 1.0, a low-cost, helmet-mounted blind-spot detection system for motorcycles leveraging ultrasonic sensors.


  • June 2025: Vision Guard ranked as the Top 350 out of 12,784 participants from 163 countries and the Top 10 in Thailand in the Blue Ocean Entrepreneurship Competition 2025, validating a strong product-market fit in the untapped motorcycle safety market.


  • January 2026: Launched MotoSaaS Prototype 1.0 on the Google Play Store, a software-first, smartphone-based blind-spot detection platform that leverages the phone’s front camera and computer vision algorithms to deliver real-time, on-device safety alerts.
Co-founders
SEAN TERDPRISANT, CO-FOUNDER, Sean is a high school student at International School Bangkok. Our technical lead and AI architect, he has spent countless hours developing MotoSaaS’s core AI system using Python and YOLO-based models. A VEX Robotics National Finalist, he previously designed VisionGuard, a motorcycle blind-spot solution using helmet-mounted ultrasonic sensors. Sean is also the founder of Robotics-for-Kids, a social initiative that has scaled robotics education over five years to more than ten schools across ASEAN, demonstrating his commitment to impact through technology and AI.
