A Real Time Transit Tracker for College Bus

Unusual and unexpected conditions on the roads affect the smooth operation of the organizational bus systems and the movement of vehicles. Also, everyday problems such as traffic congestion, unexpected delays and irregular vehicle dispatching times take place. As a result of which students and staffs of an organization get affected and they inevitably have to wait for the arrival of their respective bus. A student or a staff waiting for the college bus may want to enquire about the current location of the college bus. This inconvenience can be avoided by introducing Android based bus tracking system which helps to retrieve the location coordinates of the college bus. The main aim of this Android application is to track the college bus which would give the location of bus with the help of Google map and help the users to plan their way to reach their college on time. This application is highly used by the students and staffs of educational institutions since the android mobiles have become common used and it is an easy way of tracking the buses.

Vehicle Tracking System

In the busy metropolitan cities like Hyderabad, Mumbai, Delhi, people don't have time to invest in waiting for transport. Waiting time for transport in such crowded cities leads to less productivity on a whole. People face this problem in their daily life where they have no idea about the current status of their transport. So, the proposed solution is an android based application that will help the user to check out the current location of the bus and also will help the user to know how much time the bus will take to reach the current location of the user. The system will use GPS as the basis for the application and basic android application will be interfacing with the updated database to provide the real-time data to the user, hence enhancing the user-experience.

This paper proposes a smart application for College Bus Tracking System, which runs on Android smart phone. This enables students to find out the location of the bus so that they will not get late or will not arrive at the stop too early. The main purpose of this application is to provide exact location of the student’s respective buses and providing information like bus details etc. This application may be widely used by the college students since Android smart phones have become common and affordable for all. It is a real time system as the current location of the bus is updated every moment in the form of latitude and longitude, which is received by the students

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a development to the hardware and software of a real-time tracking system that provides the position of the tracked vehicle accurately using fairly low-cost equipment and services. Vehicle tracking industries are expanding as businesses are interested to know their fleet vehicles positions minute by minute every day. Many systems were proposed recently that can provide such information. Design/methodology/approach – The system is implemented using GM862 cellular quad band module. A monitoring server and a graphical user interface on a Web site have also been implemented to view the current location of a vehicle on a specific map. Findings – The experiments were conducted and tested in different areas of the Kingdom Of Bahrain using Google maps, and results are discussed. Originality/value – The developed system has been compared to the available and imported tracking systems to some of the telematics companies in Bahrain, and the comparison has been discussed.

The main symptoms of COVID-19 are high temperature, throat infection, and irregular heartbeat. An integrated wearable device has been presented in this paper for the measurement of temperature and heartbeat in real time using different sensors and NodeMCU ESP8266. For temperature, the DHT11 sensor is used and, for heartbeat, the pulse sensor is used. After reading the data from the sensors processed by NodeMCU ESP8266, it is sent to the firebase database using wireless connection (Wi-Fi module). From the database, the data are displayed in an android application. On the basis of certain conditions of the data, the user as well as the administrator is notified regarding the user’s current health. For the social distancing, an ultrasonic sensor is used. The sensor will warn the user, if he/she is in close contact with someone within a specified distance. The user’s current location is also tracked using the location services of android. A module named COVID-meter, based on the disease.sh-Open Disease Data API, was also included in the research for reading of real-time data of different countries related to COVID-19 like total cases, total deaths, total recovered patients, and so on. The proposed device can be used in both populated and rural areas, but in rural areas it will be much more important because people are unable to reach a doctor on time; thus, they can check their health conditions remotely using the proposed device.

Aims: Vehicle security is critical in today's world because car thefts are on the rise. robbery, and impersonation are among the crimes committed against automobiles. As a result, keeping track of and safeguarding vehicles has grown to be a significant problem in modern life. Study Design: The system combines GPS (Global Positioning Service), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), and Spy Cam technologies interfaced with an Arduino UNO to track the location of a car in real time. Methodology: Short Message Service (SMS) messages are sent to the user or Vehicle authority mobile phone together with images of the current vehicle operator when SMS with the word "Track" is composed and sent to the SIM number inserted into the GSM module. BLYNK Android application serves as database for storing and retrieving cloud information when requested. Results: The vehicle current location and the image of the current user will be displayed on Google Maps application of the sender. This technology enhances mobile vehicle security and avoid loss and impersonation. An SMS security warning is also sent to the owner when there is a lot of movement in front of the camera. Conclusion: This system helps in detection and reporting of vehicle theft in real time. It can be employed in individual cars since it is affordable; also vehicle safety authorities can employ this technology to help them secure vehicles better.
