The Bus Transportation System introduces an IoT-based Smart Transportation System designed to enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and passenger experience within public buses. Leveraging a network of sensors, including GPS, OBD-II, accelerometers, gyroscope, fuel level, and engine temperature sensors, the telemetry system continuously monitors and collects real-time data on various facets of bus performance. This data is wirelessly transmitted to a centralized system, empowering bus operators to track and optimize fleet performance. Moreover, an innovative module positioned near the bus entrance employs IR sensors to tally passengers boarding, updating real-time data accessible to waiting passengers via user-defined software. The web interface furnishes comprehensive information on bus availability, fares, current location, and passenger count, thereby enriching the commuting experience. Additionally, an RFID sensor-based tap-and-pay system is deployed outside the bus door, enabling passengers to enter upon tapping their unique ID cards preloaded with currency. The online platform further facilitates the management and replenishment of these cards, offering commuters a convenient and secure payment solution. This integration of telemetry, passenger counting, and tap-and-pay systems not only streamlines operations but also enhances the overall public transportation experience.
