Abstract– The safety of private and public vehicles is a major concern nowadays so having GPS vehicle tracking system ensures their safety while travelling. The aim of our project is to make an effective smart college bus tracking systems that sends a group message ie alert to the students waiting at the next stop. When bus start moving from one stop to the next the GPS module compares the present location with the already stored location and the system automatically sends message to all the members of next stop using GSM module. This project also describes a design of effective alarm system that can monitor an automotive / vehicle / car condition in travelling and to inform emergency about an accident that has occurred.

Key words: GSM, GPS, Arduino UNO, AT Commands, NMEA 0183 Protocol

I. INTRODUCTION

In todays connected world there is a lot of emphasis in fleet tracking using wireless communication technique. Our project deals with the design and development of an embedded system, which is used to intimate the students about the presence or absence of a college bus in that particular route, at that particular time. The project idea is based on GPS and GSM technology. The main objective of the system is to alert the passengers about the presence or absence and the approximate time that the bus would take to reach the bus stop, from where the passenger would have requested to get the intimation. Since time is one of the most influential factor in the present hectic world, the main objective of this system is to reduce the waiting time of students in the bus stop and they can spend their time efficiently and reach the bus stop just before the bus arrives, or take alternate means of transport if the bus is delayed. This helps the students in planning their journey long before and can make college bus travelling experience even more attractive. In addition, the passengers or students can send an acknowledgment back to the bus via SMS in case of an emergency. Thus, using the two-way communication of a GSM modem. An automatic accident alert device for vehicles is also introduced in this project. This design is a system which can detect accidents in significantly less time. The alert message is sent to the rescue team using GSM modem. This will help to reach the rescue service in time and save the valuable human life.
