Splitsecnd Turns Any Car Into A Connected Car, Launches Plug-In Crash Detection Device

splitsecnd_logoMany new cars now feature an automatic crash-detection system that will call 911 for you whenever you are in a crash that is bad enough for your airbags to inflate. Adding this kind of functionality to an older car is typically very costly, but the Nashville-based startup Splitsecnd just launched an Internet-connected plugin for any car that offers the same kind of functionality and also lets you track your car's location online. The device costs $199 plus a $14.95 monthly service fee and is now available for purchase on Splitsecnd's website. It will ship within the next two weeks. The company hopes to start selling it at brick-and-mortar stores later this year.
