KeepInTrack

Project Title

KeepInTrack

Project Area of Specialization Internet of ThingsProject Summary

KeepInTrack will be the system based on IoT sensors. We will be using 5 sensors: Weight sensor, Fuel alert sensor, Temperature sensor, and Hit alert sensor, further GPS will also be used for tracking and route navigation. It will help the manager track the vehicle or an organization they want to monitor, track box weight, and get all information regarding their transportation of goods. In this system, the functionalities we are working on are such as Tracking and Monitoring of their vehicles. KeepInTrack will be the application that will notify the organization about their driver’s current location. The driver will be able to see the nearest pump or the shortest route throughout the destination. The application will alert the driver if it goes in the wrong direction, which incorporates concurrent powers concurrently. Global Positioning System (GPS) and Global system for mobile communications (GSM) and web-based management software are proposed. The website will register the driver and the vendor and will provide a dashboard to the manager about the progress of the active, stop, and inactive vehicles and maintenance. The web will also provide the pending and the overdue deliveries and the total expense graph for the past months. It will also help the organization and the driver to have communication via messages. The manager will also notify you of the vehicle status.
The IoT sensors will alert the manager about the weight and the hit (emergency alert). The fuel sensor will help the driver to refill his tank when required, and the temperature sensor for some stock needs to be kept at a specific temperature. The manager can also contact the vendor if he needs products.

Project Objectives

KeepInTrack aims to provide an easy and safe environment for the manager and the driver. KeepInTrack’s goal is to:

• Reduce the maximum problems faced by today’s organizations while delivering their product and managing the driver.
• Help to perform work more efficiently and easily.
• Provides computerized maintenance and management systems.
• Alert if any emergency occurs through sensors.
• Alerts the driver about the fuel status.
• Help to calculate cost-related data via graph.
• Purchase the product easily through the web application and mobile application.
• Help to manage product and vehicle status.
• Monitor driver's location.
• Monitor the weight of the product and appear notification if changes occur.
• Help the driver to see near the petrol pump if needed.

Real-time communication between driver, manager, and vendor through chat.

Project Implementation Method

• Web Application will be implemented. For the Web application, we will be using HTML and CSS for structuring the website, PHP and MYSQL for the database, JavaScript for an interactive website, Python for the graph of cost data, and C will use no. of active vehicle status, and for all the alerts. Admin will monitor all the data with the help of a web application.
• The mobile application will be implemented. For the Mobile application, Java will be used to create the platform, and C and Python will be used for GPS.
• IoT sensors will be implemented through C.
• Panels:
  Admin Panel:
  Managers can register the vendor and driver and can chat with them.
  Managers can perform operations in which they can manage /monitor the driver’s locations, box, and transportation service and they can also get a notification if any emergency occurs or line data through sensors.
  Driver’s panel:
  The Driver will sign in and review the task he is being assigned.
  He will deliver the boxes to the targeted location.
  He can contact the manager in need.
  He will be notified if he is running out of fuel.
  Vendor Panel:
  The vendor will sign in and can have a look at the orders he got.
  He can communicate with the manager regarding the product which the manager ordered.
  He will deliver the product to the manager.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Specific sensors used in KeepInTrack have a specific mean of work. The weight alert sensor helps the manager to track the static weight of the product and get notified if any changes in the box weight occur same as for the emergency alert, if any hit occurs with the driver’s vehicle in the active state the manager gets notified with the link of the location and if manager’s Wi-Fi will not be available text message will be sent on his number. The fuel sensor will help the driver to let him know about the fuel ratio of the vehicle and if it gets less he gets the notification and the location of the nearby petrol station. The app will let the manager track all his drivers and notify them. It will let the driver track himself, the destination, and the petrol station near him. The driver and manager can communicate with each other via text message or call. The application allows language accessibility, in English and Urdu. The web application will be the main dashboard for the manager to monitor the vehicles, the graph of costs related data, chatting, vehicle status, and orders status. The manager will have the authority to register the driver. The manager and driver can have real-time communication through the KeepInTrack message feature or call. All the sensors will be implemented and will work with the help of the WI-FI module.
