Smart Vehicle Management through IoT

Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or things embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data. The Internet of Things allows objects to be sensed and controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure. The IoT is enabled by the latest developments in RFID, smart sensors, communication technologies, and Internet protocols. IoT is most useful in every sector. This paper contains how Internet of Things is helpful to manage different types of vehicles. Now a day’s transportation is most important in every aspect. At the same time to prevent accidents and find out problems those which are occurred at the time of driving the vehicles. To do this every vehicle is built with different type of sensors for getting information during its travel. For example a truck made with some sensors, those sensors will measure daily conditions of the truck, about with how much speed vehicle is going, and what is the present condition of truck, Air condition in Tyres, how much weight is carrying by the truck, engine status, fuel status all these information is stored in database. By using this information the vehicle manufactures will develop better useful vehicles in future, and produce better products. And this information is also helpful for the vehicle driver to predict what type of problem may arise in his driving in near future. After collecting the vehicle information the sensors posts that data to server via its nearest Wi-Fi. All objects are maintain IPV6 (Internet Protocol version 6) address to send information to server. The important protocol is 6LoWPAN (IPV6 Low Power Personal Area Network) is used with devices. If Any trouble occurred at the time of vehicle movement, check the database which is posted by the sensors and get the details, what type of reasons are caused to make vehicle in trouble, and perform relevant actions to ensure good condition of vehicle. IoT uses different types of protocols to work with different objects. CoAP, XMPP, AMQP and MQTT protocols are also used with IoT.
