Abstract: A system and method is disclosed having at least one sensor operable to detect a presence of a consumer in a retail environment and at least one database storing personal information of the consumer and a plurality of sales representatives employed by the retail environment. The personal information includes at least one of a personality profile based on data from at least one social network system and text communications, photographic data, and video data on the social network system. A computing device is also provided that includes at least one processor and at least one network connection. The processor is operable to compare the personal information of the consumer with the personal information of each of the plurality of sales representatives and select one of the plurality of sales representatives to service the consumer based on the comparison.

Abstract: A method and system for sensing a potential collision of a first vehicle (11) with a second vehicle (72) is disclosed. The first vehicle generates a data signal in response to an urgent event, a transponder signal from a second vehicle (72) or from an adaptive cruise control signal from the first vehicle. The first vehicle data signal includes a first position signal corresponding to a position of the vehicle and sensor signals from the first vehicle. The second vehicle (72) receives the data signal and determines a distance and vehicle trajectory from the vehicle data, the sensor signals and the position signals. A countermeasure is activated in response to the trajectory and the distance.

Abstract: A system for sensing a potential collision of a first vehicle (11) with a second vehicle (72) that transmits a second position signal. The first vehicle has a pre-crash sensing system (10) includes a memory (14) that stores vehicle data and generates a vehicle data signal. A first global positioning system (18) generates a first position signal corresponding to a position of the first vehicle. A first sensor (20) generating sensor data signals from the first vehicle. A receiver (22) receives a second position signal and a road condition signal from the second vehicle. A countermeasure system (40) is also coupled within the first vehicle. A controller (12) is coupled to the memory (14), the global positioning receiver (18) the first sensor (20) and the counter measure system (40). The controller (12) determines a distance to the second vehicle in as a function of the second position signal. The controller determines a first vehicle trajectory from the sensor data signals and the position signal.
