In this paper a system for increasing children's safety is proposed. The focus is on the daily route from home to school and vice versa, assuming the use of school buses. IoT paradigm is exploited together with different localization techniques i.e. RFID and GPS, in order to design a solution for parents willing to make certain of their child's following the main steps to school or home, i.e. taking...
An efficient and improved geographical asset tracking Solution to conserve a valuable mobile resource by dynamically adapting the tracking scheme by means of context-aware personalized route learning techniques. The system uses the software used to be run on Android based mobile phones to be run. To refine the global positioning results we devise techniques by fitting the global positions to the locally...
The custom of pilgrimage is widespread all over the world, e.g. Kumbh Mela in India, Hajj in Saudi Arabia. These are the peaceful gatherings wherein, millions of people from all corners of the world come to perform their holy rituals. However, during these events, pilgrims getting lost in the crowd, medical emergencies and stampede are likely to happen. In such incidents, authorities involved in the...
Among the Organized crime, Human trafficking hold third place where as the first and second or drug and weapon trade across the globe. Human trafficking is a shame on Humanity. As per the report of Human Rights commission of India over 40,000 children are reported missing every year of which 11000 are untraced [1][2]. Another statics report saying 80% of human trafficking is done for sexual exploitation...
Mobile tracking system is used to monitor vehicles position and in special cases there are much useful information can be monitored such as speed, cabin temperature and number of passenger. This monitoring process is done using vehicle's position data from satellite through GPS device, and sending the data to a server through GSM modem. This paper proposes new approach on managing all vehicle data...
Providers of location-based services seek new methods to authenticate the location of their clients. We propose a novel infrastructure-based solution that provides spontaneous and transaction-oriented mobile device location authentication via an integrated 802.11× wireless access point and 3G femtocell access system. By simply making a voice call while remotely monitoring femtocell activity, a calling...
Mobile health (mHealth), as an important development direction of eHealth, is an innovative application of spatial information technology used in health field. In this paper, the key technology of location based mobile health system is studied and the system prototype is designed and implemented. The mobile monitoring terminal receives data collected by the physiological parameters measuring instrument,...
Location-based services (LBSs) gain a massive shift in popularity these days and are about to take the next step towards proactive LBSs. In comparison to conventional LBSs, their proactive variant needs continuous position tracking to monitor spatial objects to detect the relationships between a user and surrounding objects and proactively perform actions. But tracking so far also results in severe...
A remote positioning and control system based on SCM and SIM508 was studied and tested in this paper. The experiment results show that the terminal's GPS data was transmitted to monitor and control center by GPRS network. At the meantime, the control information from monitor and control center was transmitted to the terminal by GPRS too. Because of the wide range of GPRS network, this system can position...
In this paper a ZigBee/GPS Tracking System for Rowing Races is presented. The system provides real-time monitoring of boat position. Potential applications includes, race monitoring, aided-training and safety systems. The system is composed of two main types of modules, Mobile Units equipped with a GPS receiver (in the boat), and a fixed one composed by the Central Unit and the Race Manager, located...
This paper describes a prototype of a wireless sensor network developed for tracking pilgrims in the Holy areas during Hajj (Pilgrimage). A delay tolerant network principle is used. Energy efficiency, robustness, and reliability are the key factors for the developed system. Every pilgrim will be given a mobile sensor unit that includes a GPS unit, a Microcontroller, antennas and a battery. A network...
This article deals with several kernel technologies applied in vehicle information service. The technology referring to GPS (Global Positioning System), GPRS (General Packet Radio Service), GIS (Geographical Information System), and Computer Network etc, as we have studied, is believed to be able to construct a Vehicle Information Service System which faces the public. Synthesizing the technologies...
Aiding the efficient collaboration and coordination of rescue teams is a difficult task especially in a mountainous region. Challenges emerge from quickly alerting and debriefing rescuers, to deploying them effectively, and also coordinating and monitoring them in the rural search domain. Knowing the exact location of the rescuers and vehicles involved in a mountain search and rescue mission is a...
According to the current status of water level monitoring of inland river, this paper presents and designs a multi-sensor integrated dynamic system for mobile water level measurement, which is based on CORS(continuous operational reference system) GPS(global positioning system), GPRS(general packet radio service), PDA(personal digital assistant) technology as well as a post processing platform. The...
Based on the technology of GPS/GIS/GPRS, the airport support vehicle command and dispatch system is designed in this paper. The information transmission between the vehicle mobile termination and the monitoring control center is established. The function of graphic display and phonetic warning of the airport support vehicle's working process is realized.
In this paper, a modern logistics monitoring platform based on the Internet of Things was studied and its system architecture and functions were particularly designed. The platform was designed based on the following technologies. In aspect of goods identification, a global unified electronic product code EPC was adopted and each goods was given a unique code that was according with international...
3S technology is an important part in the science and technology of Surveying engineering, 3S technology is the GPS, GIS, and RS technology, the development and current status of 3S technology integration and applications are discussed in detail in this paper.
Managing bipolar disorder is an increasingly important healthcare issue as the global prevalence of this condition grows. A widely practiced method of monitoring the course of the disorder is by mood and general mental health questionnaires. However, current mobile technology provides a potential means of monitoring the behavior of individuals and this information could be of value for recognizing...
In today's society, missing child cases increases rapidly. Child care is a critical issue in solving this epidemic. Various systems and methods have been implemented in solving this crisis. In this paper, the global position system (GPS) based child care system is proposed to solve this problem. This system consists of two nodes; child and parent nodes, each carried by the child and parent respectively...
The "long-distance home health care service" has become one of the key emerging businesses in Taiwan. In this paper, a mobile health management system is presented which is the first one integrating a wearable ring-type pulse monitoring sensor with a smart phone. All physiological measurements are transmitted to the smart phone through Bluetooth. The user can monitor his/her own pulse and...
