February 24, 2025 08:00 ET | Source: SaverOne 2014 Ltd. This is the 13th patent granted out of a portfolio of 23 patents and covers SaverOne’s innovative methodologies for limiting mobile phone use while driving Petah Tikvah, Israel, Feb. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SaverOne 2014 Ltd. (Nasdaq: SVRE, TASE: SVRE), a technology company engaged in developing transportation safety solutions, is pleased to announce the award by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) of a new patent. The patent, bearing the number 12,231,899 and issued on February 18, 2025, is entitled “System and method for managing access to software applications on a mobile communication device via a phone location unit.” This newly issued patent complements SaverOne’s comprehensive in-vehicle safety solution by controlling and limiting the use of phone applications by the driver while driving. It ensures that the driver can access only allowed applications, as per the corporate safety policy, such as phone or navigation, while all others remain inaccessible. This is done using wireless communication between SaverOne’s Phone Location Unit in the vehicle and its mobile application on the driver’s phone. Under U.S. law, the patent term is 20 years from the application’s effective filing date. With this new patent, SaverOne's portfolio includes 23 patents—13 granted in various jurisdictions and 10 more pending. These patents are filed in key markets such as Europe, the US, China, Israel and the United Kingdom, reflecting the company's strategic vision for global expansion. Ori Gilboa, CEO of SaverOne, stated, "This latest patent grant in the United States further strengthens our intellectual property portfolio and is another example of the uniqueness and innovation within our technology. As mobile phone-related distractions continue to pose a significant risk to road safety, SaverOne remains committed to developing and protecting advanced solutions that help prevent accidents. Our patent activity allows us to invest strongly in technology and bring it to market, while securing our competitive edge and intellectual property rights over the long term.” About the SaverOne System SaverOne's system is installed in vehicles to solve the problem of driver distraction, as a result of drivers using distracting applications on their mobile phones while driving in a way that endangers their safety and the safety of their passengers. This phenomenon is considered one of the leading causes of global road accidents. According to the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the annual cost of road accidents just in the United States stands at about $870 billion each year, excluding the costs of serious injury or death, with a quarter of those accidents estimated to be related to the use of the mobile phones while driving. SaverOne's technology specifically recognizes the driver area in the vehicle. It prevents the driver from accessing distracting applications such as messaging while allowing others (navigation as an example) without user intervention or consent, creating a safer driving environment. SaverOne's primary target markets include commercial and private vehicle fleets interested in reducing potential damages and significant costs, vehicle manufacturers interested in integrating safety solutions into their vehicles, and insurance and leasing companies. SaverOne initially addresses car fleets with a focus on the Israeli, European, and US markets and other markets worldwide. SaverOne believes that an increased focus on monitoring and prevention of cellular distraction systems in vehicles, driven by upcoming expected EU regulation, will likely have a dramatic positive impact on the demand for its systems in the future. The Company's strategy is to provide its technology to customers in the aftermarket and address OEM vehicle manufacturers to integrate the Company's protection technologies during the vehicle manufacturing process. About SaverOne SaverOne is a technology company that designs, develops, and commercializes OEM and aftermarket solutions and technologies to lower the risk of and prevent vehicle accidents. SaverOne's initial product line is a suite of solutions that saves lives by preventing car accidents resulting from distraction from using mobile phones while driving. SaverOne is also developing a sensor system for early location and direction detection under all visibility conditions of vulnerable road users (VRU) through their cellphone footprint.
