KSRTC Live Location Tracking System

A GPS module interfaced with a microcontroller; installed on all buses that sends information using a WiFi module to a website that displays the live location of buses according to users' request.

The problem KSRTC Live Location Tracking System solves

Citizens and common people are unaware of the arrival times of buses of the public transport system of KSRTC. This causes inconvenience, delays and confusion.
This intergrated system helps people to save their time and energy by being in the know of the exact arrival of buses. This knowledge helps to decide alternative modes of transporation, reduces unnecessary crowding at bus stops, helps those who cannot read the local language, improves public transport system efficiency and ultimately improves the reliability of the KSRTC.

Challenges we ran into

We faced difficulties while constructing the website within this short period of time. Brainstorming ideas through online platforms took some time and effort. Through determination and dedication we were able to complete the project within the given time limit.
