Over the years we have seen many revolutions in the transport system, along with this series we introduce to you, not a hardware but software revolution with the potential to make our drives safe, secure and efficient.
We present to you Safe Driving System using mobile systems. This system provides you with maps along with road condition notifications. The road conditions are updated using your mobile phones to provide real time road conditions to the cloud server, the system processes that data to refine the existing map data.
Safe Driving System collects the data from 3D-Accelerometer and updates it on server. 3D-Accelerometer comes built-in most Android devices, it has 3 Axis, it collects X, Y, Z values and change in those values is uploaded with corresponding latitude and longitude. Data Mining is applied on all the collected data for particular location and results are derived out of it.
The derived result shows us the road condition. It helps us to detect bumps, potholes, speed Breakers and other roadway anomalies. The detected results are sent back to application in form of Alerts.
Thus this application assists driver throughout journey with road condition and helps driver by alerting him about upcoming road condition.
