PROBLEM/PURPOSE

To Design and Develop a Portable Tracking or Global Positioning system (GPS) and Vehicle Telematics System for Logistics with On-Board Diagnostics (OBD). (Road Transportation)

CUSTOMER CHALLENGES

  • Driver Behaviour exceptions (over speeding, gear utilization, harsh acceleration, harsh braking, cornering).
  • Live location of the vehicle.
  • Notifications / Alerts.
  • Authentication (Fingerprint or Facial).

PROCESS:

    • The Node when supplied with a GSM/GPRS SIM with active Internet Data services is connected to the World Wide Web Services.
    • The Node Will POST the real-time Location data fetched from GPS Module & OBD to cloud using HTTP POST API every 30 seconds.
    • The cloud database service stores the received data and provides a web – based UI of location in the Maps Widget.

  • The Mobile app, provides easy access and is used to see the location and vehicle telematics on hand held devices.

The Node consists of:

  • 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M4F Microcontroller Unit (MCU).
  • SIM808 Quad-Band GSM/GPRS module which combines GPS technology for satellite navigation.
  • OBD Extension
  • Fingerprint sensor and camera module.

BENEFITS

  • Effective health planning of the vehicle
  • Avoid cascading part damage
  • Reduced vehicle downtime
  • Reduced service time
  • Better Authentication.
