The biggest problems in metro's is the traffic congestion. It will definitely help if some one knows beforehand how the traffic level is before we actually land up in that mess. And that luxury is not so far away.
Microsoft Research (MSR) India, the research arm of Microsoft Corp., the world’s largest software firm, is currently researching a software solution, TrafficSense, which will help smartphone users automatically monitor road and traffic conditions while they are on the move.
WHAT DOES TRAFFICSENSE DO?
Different sensors on these phones—radio such as bluetooth or cellular wireless; microphone; global positioning system or GPS; an accelerometer; or even the camera—to help phone users monitor traffic and save time.
The information is sent to the central server , the results aggregated and sent to other customers.This requires a way of communicating with the devices. So, while the accelerometer can detect potholes, the microphone can detect the extent of honking in the area, and the camera can provide photographs.
WHAT IS NEW IN MSR INDIA?
