Continuation

Millions of others on the related aspects

Continuation

● Must be a mobile solution● Should work in remote areas● Should be able to keep track of locations

of vehicles along with other required attributes

● Real-time● Robust● Reliable

Fitment / Feasibility

● Hardware System○ GSM○ GPS○ Sensors○ Controllers

● Software System○ Web based○ Real-time

Technology Employed

A cheap wireless network for communication, available almost everywhere.

Technology Employed: GSM

A global positioning system for locating things on earth.

Create by US Navy.

Technology Employed: GPS

A medium to interpret different physical world things in electronic attributes.

Example: IR, LDR, Temperature, Fuel etc.

Technology Employed: Sensors

Some controllers to manipulate the physical world according as per instructions programmed.

Technology Employed: Controllers

Web based software systems enable all time available services at every place in all conditions.

Technology Employed: Web based

Software interface must be very responsive and always present the user with the almost instantaneous results and information.

Technology Employed: Real-time

How it works !!

● Solves all the mentioned problems● Provides data and analytics for

optimization● Real-time Alarm and Alerts● Option to schedule routine jobs.● Easy to use Interface and Apps enable

usage in low resource and novice user

Features: Fruits we harvest

● Availability of GSM network● Limited Accuracy in Fuel measurement● Availability of 4 / 3 GPS Satellites ● Battery Life Vs Real Time Tradeoff● Availability of data in GIS● Data size Vs Cost Tradeoff● Hardware Tampering

Limitations: Work to be done

Q1: What if GSM network is not available ?A: Now a days most of devices use a memory chip to store the data in memory, and send it to the software system when GSM network is available.

Note: In such case Real-time Service is disrupted

FAQs

Q2: What if required GPS satellites are not available ?A: In such cases other sensor’s data can be recorded and/or depending on GSM network it may be sent in Real-time to the software system.Note: In such case Location related services are disrupted.

Continuation

Q3: What if Hardware is Tampered ?A: Most of the hardware devices now a days can generate immediate alarm and alerts in case of Physical Tamper/Alter.

Note: In such case after tamper alerts are sent device can be damaged by the intruder may stop working.

Continuation

Q4: Is it possible to control devices (in turn vehicle) from software interface.A: Yes absolutely, but device must be connected to software system for that, otherwise SMS based protocols are also supported on devices.
