Android-Based Vehicle Monitoring and Tracking System Using ARM7 and CAN Technology

Narendra kumar T, sivaji s

Abstract


This system aims to provide a low-cost means of monitoring a vehicle’s performance and tracking by communicating the obtained data to a mobile device via Bluetooth. Then the results can be viewed by the user to monitor Temperature, Humidity and Fuel consumption .Data can also be sent to the vehicle’s maintenance department which may be used to detect and predict faults in the vehicle. This is done by collecting live readings from the engine control unit (ECU) utilizing the vehicle’s built in liquid crystal display (LCD). An electronic hardware unit is built to carry-out the interface between the vehicle’s LCD board and a Bluetooth module, which in part communicates with an Android-based mobile device. The mobile device is capable of transmitting data to a server using GPS (global positioning system) and cellular internet connection.
