Automobiles and computing technologies are creating a new level of data services in vehicles. The Automobile Black Box has functions similar to an airplane black box. It is used to analyze the cause of vehicular accidents and prevent the loss of life and property arising from vehicle accidents. This paper proposes a prototype of an Automobile Black Box System that can be installed into vehicles. The...
Traffic accidents are a fact of life.

One way to reduce this response time is to reduce the amount of time it takes to report an accident. Smartphones are ubiquitous and with network connectivity are perfect...
I-CROSS is an intelligent system designed to help drivers to decide the time slot in which an intersection can be crossed without collisions. This service has been developed as a desktop application that can be executed in Android devices. The set of algorithms that determine the crossing order are fed with information about surrounding vehicles: actual and further GPS position, speed and an identification...
