Development of self-trained driver-coaching system based on geolocation, IoT and BI techniques
The objective of PEGASUS research project is to design, build and test a novel professional truck driver coaching prototype. The development of the prototype is based on three pillars:
- Geo-location
- IoT (Internet of Things) network
- BI (Business Intelligence) system
The operation of the proposed system relies on the BI as the analytical tool for the large data volume obtained from an on-purpose built in sensors platform.
The sensing system comprises a number of selected metrics acquired from the CAN/FMS Bus of the vehicle (e.g., fuel consumption, engine torque, wheel steer angle) plus a variety of low-cost external units (e.g. GNSS, MEMS IMU, temperature, rain and cameras). The proposed system will interact with a digital map database linking the truck location to the road network.
