Description

1 TARIFF A VEHICLE INFORMATION TRACKING SYSTEM Technical Area This invention offers an alternative to the tachograph devices currently used in smart vehicles. sharing the information obtained about the vehicle through a mobile application and It relates to a system that enables recording in the cloud. Previous Tech 10 With the current technology, an additional device (tachograph) is installed in vehicles for intercity freight and passenger transport. The safety of drivers and their vehicles is ensured. In this case... Some information about the driver's journey is recorded on the tachograph and required It provides a printed receipt to be presented in cases. However, device dependency and 15 The fact that tachograph activation is driver-based can make tracking more difficult. Therefore, the physically present devices in the vehicles and the vehicle-related information can be transmitted remotely to devices. as an alternative to tachograph devices that enable sharing It appears that a viable system is needed. 20 Korean patent KR20130140304, which falls under the prior art. The document mentions a digital tachograph system. The patent in question... The invention described in the document is a smartphone-based digital tachograph management device. and includes a management method related to this. The aim is a driver service 25 between the user's smartphone and a driver service provider's terminal By establishing a direct connection, both business efficiency and driver service matching can be achieved. The aim is to increase its efficiency. The system is a digital tachograph equipped with a Bluetooth module, A Bluetooth-enabled user smartphone and an access device installed on that phone. It consists of the application. The smartphone records vehicle usage data from both the tachograph and the smartphone. It collects data and distributes this data over wired or wireless networks (3G, 4G, Wi-Fi) 2 It transmits the information to the management agency server. This structure allows for additional communication. Digital tachograph data can be accessed directly and easily without the need for a separate device. The transfer is ensured. Brief Description of the Invention 5 The aim of this invention is to completely digitize the tachograph application. distance covered by the user along the way, speed, driving time, working time the recording of this information and the use of this information only by the vehicle not only on the internal recording devices but also in the digital cloud environment 10 The goal is to create a system that ensures its preservation. Detailed Description of the Invention "A Vehicle Information Tracking System" was developed to achieve the purpose of this invention. 15 These figures are shown in the attached documents; Figure 1 shows a schematic view of the system that is the subject of the invention.
