ZoomSafer, a Reston, Va.-based provider of innovative solutions to prevent distracted driving, has raised $1m in a seed round of financing from a private investor.
The funds will be used to launch commercial service for RIM Blackberry devices by the end of this year and accelerate development for Windows Mobile and Google Android devices.
Commenting on the funding, Mike Riemer, CEO of ZoomSafer, said: “The completion of this financing provides appropriate funds so we can accelerate delivery of our patented service to keep people focused on the road and not on their phones”.
ZoomSafer released its initial beta for Blackberry phones on September 1, 2009 and has received tremendous feedback from hundreds of users across the U.S. Based on this feedback, ZoomSafer is prepared to launch a significantly enhanced phase two beta on October 20, 2009.
