Nowadays, road accidents are very high. On time medical aid can help in saving lives. Integrated engineering is a latest trend to solve problems. To be able to design a product using an integrated technology will be beneficial to any engineering problems and a huge contribution to the community. An important indicator of survival rates after an accident is the time between the accident and when emergency medical personnel are dispatched to the accident location. By eliminating the time between when an accident occurs and when the first responders are dispatched to the scene decreases mortality rate and can save lives. One approach to eliminating the delay between accident occurrence and first responder dispatch is to use in vehicle automatic accident detection and notification systems. Also tracking a vehicle in case of any theft has become a tough job. This system aims to alert the near and dear ones of the person in the vehicle about the accident to provide immediate medical aid. In this System when a vehicle meets with an accident immediately Impact sensor, Piezoelectric Sensor Transducer, Micro electro mechanical system (mems) will detects the signal and sends it to Arduino (Atmega328P). Immediately microcontroller sends the signal to GPS module to give the exact value of the geographical coordinates which contains the value of longitude, latitude and altitude. After that the microcontroller sends the alert message through the GSM module to the near and dear ones. Also in case of any theft our project facilitates the owner to get his vehicle’s position in terms of Latitude and Longitude and a link directing to the google maps when the owner sends a SMS to the SIM used in the system.

Design and Implementation of Real Time Tracking system based on IOT

My B.Sc. Thesis under the supervision of Prof. Bahador Bakhshi .

In this project, we intend to implement a system that can accurately determine the location, direction of movement, and locations of moving objects at any given time with using SIM808 Module. In this system, each object is equipped with a GPS module that receives its location every two minutes from the satellite and sends it to the software servers via the GSM modem. Software servers analyze the information after receiving it. In this part of the project, a web application will be developed to process the transmitted data and then store it in a database and finally convert the stored information to visible to users. This allows you to see the speed, direction of movement, and locations of the object on the map.

This project is a tracking system that uses the same GSM and GPS module that is built into the SIM808 module. whenever you send the “Hi” or “Hello” string to the number of that SIM that is already inserted in the GSM Module, you will be able to get a response with the GPS location of the module depending on where it is.

This paper proposes a prototype solution for a mobile web resource tracking system using mobile devices during an emergency situation. The system provides real time data to a decision maker so that he/she can effectively and efficiently monitor resources and assess the situation accordingly. Mobile devices (i.e., smart phones) support the ease of use for any location and at anytime. The Internet technology is selected to enable multiple or cross platform technology solutions for different mobile devices. Resources in the scope of this project are human resources (e.g., a doctor, a police officer) and a chemical list in a room. With the use of a GPS-enabled device or a wireless-enabled device, the system is used to provide the current location of the human resources. Transferring data between system databases and mobile devices is one of the important areas to address in this project. Since location data of a user is sensitive data, data should be protected via an encrypted protected network. In addition, because of the urgency of any crisis situation, it is critical that data from the system be able to be retrieved in a reasonable time frame. The investigation includes the exploration of database and data transfer solutions to meet the data availability during emergency conditions on mobile devices. This document includes a description of the system design, a review of current technologies, proposed methodology, and the implementation. Review of the literature section provides background information on current available technologies that were studied (section 3). Four identified factors are suggested in the system design – usability, security, availability, and performance. The discussion of which technology is selected for each feature can be found in the implementation section 4. Proposed future research areas can be found in the conclusion section and recommendations for future work section.

The availability and full functionality of mobile devices represent one of the basic principles of universal design for the visually impaired. Navigation applications for the users must also be customized and are available to the users’ needs. In this paper, the software and hardware characteristics of the currently most used mobile devices were analyzed. Applications for managing and directing the blind and visually impaired transport network have been analyzed in terms of determining the accuracy of the location where the users are located. The applications that are the most common among the users according to the Croatian Association for Promotion and Development of Tiflotechnic (HUPRT) were used. This sample of subjects has been made in Zagreb where according to data there are 1985 visually impaired people. To conclude, the recommendations have been made for the development of information and communication services and mobile devices for the visually impaired.

"This paper proposed design and implementation of trucks tracking system using GPS based on semantic web for vehicle tracking in real time. In-vehicle unit and a tracking server is used. The information is transmitted to tracking server using GSM/GPRS modem on GSM network by using SMS or using direct TCP/IP connection with tracking server through GPRS. The received SMS contain longitude and latitude that are used to locate the vehicle on the Google maps. Tracking server also has GSM/GPRS modem that receives vehicle location information via GSM network and stores this information in database. It has been explored that most of the GPS based tracking systems are user friendly, cost effective, reliable and can be easily validated through different experiments and simulations which means that tracking system will send notifications periodically to the main station about the current position of the vehicle . Moreover those tracking notifications (GPS) will be stored in the database for future revising or generating required reports.. The tracking system will be better for cars, trucks, trailers, railways, containers and boats that can be traced using GPS vehicle tracking.

Summary The aim of this project was to produce a geographically aware application for mobile devices that would allow friends to view each other's locations on a map to aid in navigation and meeting up with one other. The aim was also to improve upon the ideas of other existing systems. It was also hoped that users could become more social by knowing each other's whereabouts. The project grew through further research and this report details the research, design, implementation and testing of the system.

Holmenkollen is a ski jumping hill, a place and a structure of cultural and historical importance in Norway. This thesis describes the development of the situated simulation Holmenkollen Time Travel (HTT), an application made for iPad2. The HTT allows a user to “travel in time” to experience four different versions of the ski jumping hill, hence the name. The application is tested on location by different user groups and the feedback from the individuals shows how the HTT can enhance a user’s experience of Holmenkollen. The application introduces some new developments to the concept of situated simulations, and is further analyzed within the theoretical framework of Augmented Reality and Place Specific Computing.
