IoT in automobiles application (example)


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 IoT ecosystem

Basics of IoT IoT (Internet of Things) refers to a network where devices communicate to devices and devices communicate to software applications over the internet . This web-enabled devices/internet enabled devices will usually collect data, send and act upon data from their surrounding environment. •       The IoT network consists of Edge side (sensors, actuators and controllers connected to the internet) and Cloud side. •       The devices on the Edge side can either connect to the internet directly or using an Edge (IoT) gateway . The Edge gateway is used for: •        Providing a connection to the internet for devices that cannot connect to the internet on their own. These devices don’t have feature to connect to the Internet. •        Local functionality/control that must work even without internet availability •       ...

FMEA Types and steps involved

FMEA means Failure Mode and Effects Analysis. There are 3 types of FMEAs.  System FMEA (SFMEA) Design FMEA  (DFMEA) Process FMEA  (PFMEA) SFMEA is for System and used to analyze the failures of the end product in a customer's system. It focuses on the potential failure modes associated with the functions of the end product.  DFMEA begins with the development of information to understand the system, subsystem or component being analyzed and defines their functional requirements and characteristics. It focuses on potential failure modes associated with the function of each system, subsystem or component being analyzed.  PFMEA is used to analyze manufacturing and assembly processes. It focuses on process inputs.  FMEA Processes - Steps Involved  There are 13 steps in creating an FMEA. Please find the attached diagram. Step 2: Define the Function  What is the system, the sub system or process steps supposed to d...
