Description

IoT based Bus Tracking

This project aims at designing an access point which provides for a dynamic passenger information system (PIS) available on public displays at bus stops and bus terminals. The access point is microcontroller based and is designed using the NodeMcu . In addition, an Android device with a GPS transmitter app is placed in every bus which is to be tracked. The application sends the GPS coordinates every 2 minutes to bus stops via the WI-FI network.. The GPS module communicates the location information with the NodeMcu  and the current location of the bus is displayed on an LCD screen.
