Context :

Maharashtra plans to make location tracker device must for commercial vehicles     ( TOI – 15 Dec 2020 )

 

Extract :

 

 

Ø  The state transport department is pushing a proposal for compulsory Vehicle Location Tracking system (VLTS) for all commercial vehicles.

Ø  State Transport Commissioner, Avinash Dhakne said that the VLTS will have a tracking device in all commercial vehicles making it easy to track its location and zero in on vehicles flouting traffic rules

Ø  The Transport Department will appoint an agency to provide infrastructure for VLTS , including setting up of the Command and Control Centre for the State

Ø  Sources said the State will appoint authorized suppliers of the tracking device which will be made mandatory in the near future. The device will linked to a Central Command Centre that will be monitored by the State Transport department . It will bring down number of mishaps and fatalities

Ø  Sources said that the tracking device will be linked to the Registration Number of the vehicle

 

HOW VLTS SYSTEM WORKS :

 

Ø  Owner of commercial vehicle ( Cab , Bus or Truck ), fits device

Ø  It is connected via GPS and can be located remotely / monitored

Ø  Vehicle speed, location and other details can be procured easily

Ø  System will help reduce mishaps and fatalities. Also books offenders for speeding / lane cutting

Dear Shri Dhakneji,

 

 Congratulations for taking this FIRST STEP towards what I have described at :

 

Internet of Vehicles ( IoV ) ? ………………………….[ 04 Mar 2017 ]

 

Extract :

 

I expect that , over the next 5 years , all of these will converge into an Internet of Vehicles ( IoV ), when :

  

·         Most vehicles will be electric ( essentially, “ computers on wheels “ ), automatically determining the best / shortest, route / stops and optimizing vehicle performance. Mobile Apps will be a governing device

 

 ·         Vehicles will be internet connected with one another, exchanging data

 

 ·         Vehicles will be internet connected with servers of Transport Authorities / Traffic Police / Pollution Control Boards and a host of other governmental / institutional organizations , and be relaying all sorts of data  24*7

 

 .  Vehicles will report accidents ( being hit ) and thefts ( being stolen ) , on their own !

 

 ·         All vehicles will carry a whole lot of “ Sensors “ , which will continuously “ monitor “ the conditions of the vehicles and relay the same to all the authorities

 

 ·         All vehicles will be equipped with RADAR – LIDAR –CAMERAS – GPS locators – / Augmented Reality  etc , to avoid collisions / accidents

 

 ·         Prepaid RFID chips ( linked to Aadhar / Bank Accounts  ? ) for Road Taxes / Insurance Premiums / Toll charges / Fines / Carbon Credits ( through DBT )

 

 

 ·         In-Built Sensors will measure , ( and request maintenance on their own ! ),

 

     #   Engine ( or Electric Motor ) temperature

 

     #   Pressures / Displacements / Compression Ratios in case of petrol / diesel

 

          Vehicles / Battery Charge Levels / fuel consumption

 

     #   Emission Levels ( PM2.5 / CO2 etc ) in petrol / diesel vehicles

 

     #   Tyre pressures / wear and tear of moving parts / RPM

 

     #   Vehicle speed / acceleration / braking distance

 

     #   Proximity to other moving / stationary vehicles or objects

 

     #   Weather conditions / Visibility levels / Traffic Density

 

     #   Condition of the road being traversed ( co-efficient of friction )

 

     #   Condition of the person driving ( sleepy / drunk etc )

 

     #   Whatever else you want “ measured / monitored / relayed “

What you have initiated has the potential to solve ( in long term, no doubt ), the problem of Air Pollution caused by emissions from Petrol / Diesel vehicles

You may want to call up Parth Trivedi

( CEO – Skylo.tech  ) and ask him :

 

“ Parth,

  Can you leverage your Skylo Hub to implement :
