Automobiles in IoT
Accident rates are tremendously increasing day by day due
to reckless driving. It has become a necessary to implement a system which
ensures safety. An electronic system which can be designed to monitor over
speed conditions and seat belt status of the driver. It also provides a button,
named as Ladies‟ One Button Help”, which can be used in emergency
conditions for the security notion. It uses Arduino Uno as the
controller. It uses GPS and GSM modules for sending over speed notification and
‘Help’ messages to police control room and also helps to reduce
accidents due to over speed as it forces the driver to keep the vehicle speed
in the predetermined range. This device thus helps to provide a safe and secure
driving environment.
To be precise, extension of this system would be an
integrated database that would track, communicate, store and provide
intelligent feedback on critical vehicle performance and safety parameters like
Location, Vehicle status(Lock and unlock, acceleration, air bag
deployment, Excessive vibration or failure of parts, suspected location change
).
This is also useful for intelligent maintenance. Local
analytics could be applied on thousands of on-board sensors to flag abnormal
events and take corrective action. The data may then be sent to automakers for
deeper insight into trends across entire vehicle fleets. Intelligent cars could
collect and analyze data from each other and also provide the right information
about the transportation infrastructure to keep drivers safe, reducing vehicle
wait and travel time. These have the potential to prevent accidents by
exchanging information about location, speed and direction. As a result cars
take proactive measures to move safely and efficiently.
Integration of smartness and intelligence with IoT creates
safe, unique, high value user- automotive interface experience .
This article gives an real world application how IoT can be
implemented in automobiles to increase safe and secure driving. There are lot
of things can be done in IoT in every industry. Based on ROI (return on
investment), feasibility, security, energy- efficiency, quality etc have to
take proper decision whether to implement IoT is needed or not. Thank you. I
hope you like this article. Suggestions, queries always welcome. :)
