The Internet Of Things In Automotives

IOTs in an automobile is the present advancement of smart and internet-connected cars. IOT in automotive can make vehicles smarter, intelligent, pleasant driving and increase efficiency using Artificial intelligence and machine learning Algorithm. Security of the automobile are introduced by using camera and proximity sensors to guide the user in his blind spots and sends the location of the vehicle incase of emergency to emergency contacts automatically. They use 360-degree camera’s to avoid collisions, during lane change and parking. Camera is installed in rear and front sides of the vehicle and provides both 2D & 3D view of vehicle surroundings. We can even see the vehicle statistics and fuel range and can call for road side assistance incase of problems.

Sensors in the operational components of vehicles monitor functional metrics such as Temperature, Engine status, speed, Electrical systems and Navigation, which measure performance variables and forecast performance benchmarks. The Information gathered is used to update owners with preventative and predictive maintenance alerts helping them to address issues before they arise. Google has joined hands in the automobile industry to Enhance the Navigation and voice assist features the user to have all the control the car with their voice. Software updates keeps the vehicle up to date with the latest firmware and software. Telematics systems can track a vehicles live location and movements. Automotive Telematics systems can monitor live details of the vehicle like speed, fuel usage, Tire pressure.

Autonomous vehicles are the future of automobile makers. Many cars now a days come with semi-autonomous driving and hands free parking feature. Currently car manufacturers are trying to develop a fully autonomous car. IOT implemented semi-autonomous cars take on-spot decisions by logical algorithms programmed and control’s the vehicle operations to avoid accidents and reduce the load from the driver by the use of sensors and cameras implemented in the vehicle based on certain condition.

The implementation of IoT in automotive brought easy monitoring of fleet management. Now trucks are integrated with weight measurement, location tracking, and several other sensors. The data is sent to the cloud and is processed by the algorithms and with the processed data we can Track the location of the truck, Weight of the truck, Type of cargo carried by the truck, Driver and vehicle statistics monitoring
