Design and implementation of smart transport monitoring system to ensure passenger's safety

Abstract

In the era of smart cities and advanced transportation systems, ensuring the safety, efficiency, and reliability of public transportation is of paramount importance. This paper presents the design and implementation of an intelligent bus monitoring system that leverages cutting-edge technologies to enhance the overall functionality of buses. The system integrates GPS-based location tracking, image processing for passenger counting, an online ticketing system through website and a suite of safety sensors. These sensors include ultrasonic sensors for object detection, gas sensors for detecting leaks, and an accident detector. In the unfortunate event of an accident, the system promptly notifies the bus administration by transmitting the precise location coordinates. This project, which is academically demanding, seeks to transform public transportation by offering up-to-date information and taking proactive steps to ensure safety.
