Sistema de geolocalización y análisis vehicular para motociclistas

Abstract

Currently there are a number of applications functioning through internet connections aimed at assisting motorcyclists. However, most of these applications wither do not function or require the route maps to be downloaded prior to the trip. This paper proposes a vehicular analysis system where the motorcyclists have access to an application developed for Android devices, without relying on an internet connection. This will done either through data of the routes stored on the mobile device or through data hosted on a server through the implementation of a web service when there is a connection. Additional, variables are tracked and plotted, such as instant geographical position, percentage of necessary fuel, and speed, obtained through the design and implementation of an electronic circuit that acquires the signals of the motorcycle sensors and submit such information via Bluetooth to the mobile device. From the tests carried out it is observed that the system works efficiently with an absolute error up to 2 meters from the destination point. However, the routes from actual location of the motorcyclist to the intermediate position, the precision is even better with an error possibility of only centimeters. In general, for some distance, the system presents a standard deviation of 15,19 meters. The storage of the data and the user orientation are in real time, and the system can be implemented on any kind of vehicle.
