Live College Bus Tracking and Route Mapping Using Internet of Things

Abstract

The proposed system works on GPS based tracking system which uses ReactJS to develop this application. This system displays the attendance report of the students who have boarded the bus, gives the estimated arrival time and live video feed to monitor the students for their safety. Beyond this feature it also offers the ability to create or update routes and places in the database. This system can be utilized by any travelling organization to get information about the vehicles' current locations. The user will be able to access the system using any web browser or through an Android Application. The system mainly uses Server module, Bus Unit module and End User Application module. The Server module is in charge of monitoring and recording the bus location. The Bus Unit module is in charge of tracking the bus's current location, recording the attendance of each student in the bus and provides it to server. The essential components of this module are internet-connected microcontroller, RFID and GPS modules. The end user application module provides user interfaces for both administrators and users.
