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. :)

Introduction to latest technologies such as IoT, IoE, IIoT,WoT

Hi Everyone, Now-a-days, we are hearing terms such as IoT, IoE, IIoT, WoT. In this article i am trying to explain what exactly these terms means.  Let me start with fancy word called IoT (Internet Of Things). Its a world of things (such as vehicles, home appliances, any physical device) connected.  These devices embedded with firmware, software, electronics, sensors, actuators and connectivity which makes any physical device intelligent, so that they can talk with each other. Do you want to know why? I will be explaining more details in my next article. IIoT is Industrial IoT, i.e using IoT in manufacturing industries. This brings brilliant machines together, advanced analytics and many more. It has great potential to change the way how the Industry works and it enables M2M machine-to-machine communication. Next article i will tell some real time applications of this. IoE is Internet of Everything where people, process, data and things(these are ...

Introduction to Machine Learning – ML

Machine Learning – ML ML is one of the hot buzz word now, let me explain what it is and why it is? In traditional programming, we feed data and program to a computer to get output, but in Machine learning, we feed data and output to a system to generate algorithm or programming for that data to find a pattern. So that we can forecast the results of new set data by applying the pattern which has found on existing data. This is a simple definition to understand ML concept. ML gives computer systems the ability to learn the data, without being programmed explicitly. Day to day growing internet traffic makes human thinking and analysis of data to limited. To do this we need a machine which can analyze the huge data and find a pattern on that data. This is what machine learning does. It is a continuously developing field.  Example: Facial recognition technology allows social media platforms to help users tag and share photos of friends.  Python  if a popular language fo...

Introduction to Augmented Reality (AR)

Introduction to Augmented Reality (AR) AR is an enhanced version of reality. It’s an integration of digital information with the User's environment in real time. AR is different from Virtual Reality (VR). Virtual Reality creates an artificial environment and Augmented reality  uses the existing environment and overlays new information on top of it. Its  where live direct or indirect views of physical real-world environments are  augmented  with superimposed computer-generated images over a user's view of the real-world, thus enhancing one's current perception of  reality . It’s how you work, play and connect with the world. AR is rapidly growing technology, because it brings the objects to reality. Key Components to Augmented Reality Devices       Sensors and Cameras       Projection       Processing       Reflection Many of the  top augmented reality companies  are se...
