GPS (Global Positioning System) has become an integral part of a vehicle system which provides speed, time, direction etc besides the navigation data. Speed is one of the primary attributes of vehicle accident. Many lives could have been saved if emergency service could receive accident information timely. This paper proposes to detect an accident from the map matched position of a vehicle by utilizing...
Speed is one of the basic reasons for vehicle accident. Many lives could have been saved if emergency service could get accident information and reach in time. Nowadays, GPS has become an integral part of a vehicle system. This paper proposes to utilize the capability of a GPS receiver to monitor speed of a vehicle and detect accident basing on monitored speed and send accident location to an Alert...
We review research findings on Intelligent Speed Adaption (ISA) and evaluate a self-contained, onboard speed advisory system that alerts drivers when the prevailing speed limit is exceeded (passive ISA). Recent developments in technology, including improvements to GPS and other navigation aids, mean that ISA has become a commercial reality rather than an experimental novelty. Extensive trials of ISA...
Traffic congestion on major roadways costs our nation billions of dollars in lost earnings, wasted fuel consumption, injury and loss of human life. Providing motorists with real time roadway conditions is essential to mitigating traffic congestion. We propose a novel real-time messaging system that can be used to communicate imminent traffic conditions to motorists. Having such information can allow...
