If your low pressure light comes on it it either too late or no problem anyway. Shutting the car down automatically is the dumbest idea yet.

So when exactly is the ultrasonic device supposed to measure the level? The level varies with engine speed and temperature.
I work on heavy equipment and what they do is have a red flashing light that gives you 30 seconds before the engine shuts down. Basically oil pressure, coolant temp, or coolant level it give you 30 seconds.

It may be difficult to incorporate this into our dash without complaints though.
