Abstract
In this paper a Smart Vehicle Assistance and Monitoring system (SVAMS) is presented. SVAMS is an intelligent transportation system (ITS), developed to tackle various traffic related issues. It is a traffic management, monitoring and optimization solution in which all the vehicles are interconnected through Zigbee and are monitored and assisted centrally, by a data center. The system has two parts; one part is mounted in/on the vehicle and the other part is at the data centre. Part one collects data from various sensors and transmits it to central data centre. All the data will be stored on cloud for further analysis, processing and future use. SVAMS is relatively low-cost, compact and has various functionalities such as emergency response, pollution level monitoring, automatic toll collection, traffic rule violation detection, vehicle tracking, etc. The use of SVAMS will help to build up Clean, Corruption free and Crime free (C-3) cities.
Highlights
The rapid urbanization of cities in developing countries like India has resulted in a sharp rise in the number of vehicles on roads in recent years
As a consequence of which, there is an alarming raise of negative externality such as sever road congestion, air pollution, frequent road accident etc. which puts huge stress on the transportation system
Data is received from the vehicle via ZigBee and transmitted to the computer via the Bluetooth module
Summary
The rapid urbanization of cities in developing countries like India has resulted in a sharp rise in the number of vehicles on roads in recent years. The advancements in wireless communication and Internet capabilities have encouraged the development of ITS for improving traffic flow and safety. The use of effective communication can help reduce congestion and gas emissions to a minimum level and it can significantly improve the safety. We have designed and developed a system, which has most of the key functions of these systems and is compact in size and highly cost effective as well. This system has a capacity to replace existing systems in the market.
