V16 Beacon and Navigation Apps: How Alerts Are Displayed in Google Maps and Waze
In roadside emergencies, every second counts. The Hero Driver LED IoT Connected V16 Beacon not only improves your safety, but also connects in real time to the DGT cloud, transmitting your exact location. The result? Navigation platforms like Google Maps and Waze can alert other drivers to your breakdown 🛑.
How does the connection with navigation apps work?
When you activate your connected V16 beacon , it automatically sends your geolocated location to the DGT 3.0 platform via its IoT connection. From this cloud, the information is distributed to navigation applications in real time.
Among the first to join are Google Maps and Waze , which receive the incident alert and display it visually on their maps, so other users can reduce their speed or find an alternative route.
What types of alerts are displayed?
Alerts sent from your Hero Driver LED IoT beacon are reflected as:
- 🚨 Road hazard icon
- 📍 Exact location of the stopped vehicle
- 📢 Incident warning message (depending on the app)
This feature significantly improves visibility of the incident and reduces the risk of secondary accidents. It also contributes to greater traffic flow and safer decision-making by other drivers.
