We are
proposing a solution to the current transportation issue in our country. We are
creating a system where people can rent bicycles and pay according to their
travel distance. This system can embed to any current available bike renting
company as part of their renting system. These bicycles can be rented from
renting stations that are placed in public areas like railway stations and bus
stands. This is a pick-and-ride system. They can either be pre-reserved or just
come and pick up their bicycles. With this system, fuel shortage is no longer
an issue, people don’t have to buy bicycles for themselves, and it is also good
for their health too. Most of the previous products that relate to our product
mainly use smartphones and their inbuilt components for vehicle tracking and
fitness tracking purposes. Measurements are not very accurate when using the
phone to track. Renting systems are usually situated in a place and consumers
have to go there and rent and return the bikes. Our systems overcome these
issues with a pick-and-go renting system. We have bicycle stations, and anyone
can pick up their bikes from those stations and a tracking device is placed in
the bike. Measurements can be taken accurately, and consumers can pick up and
drop off bicycles at their closest stations. The research focuses on developing
an accident detection and notification system for timely response to incidents.
It explores integrating demand prediction to optimize bicycle availability and
repair processes. To engage and motivate riders, interactive elements are
incorporated into rides through gamification. The research predicts upcoming
bicycle issues through data analysis, enabling proactive maintenance and fewer
breakdowns. A weather detection system provides timely weather updates,
enhancing safety and planning. The combination aims to improve the overall
riding experience while prioritizing safety, efficiency, and satisfaction.
