Street Advisor

This graduate project aims to track and provide tracking information for an Android user. The application “advises” the user for a possible car / person collision in the traffic area. This is an application to avoid unwanted accidents on the road. It utilizes the current location, speed or step length and other motion sensors as well as direction of the phone to predict the next user’s location within 3s in the future.
This application is intended for travelers as well as for “walkers” on the streets. However, everyone interested can install this application for future prevention.
Prior to the implementation of the project, extensive research was carried out in order to pinpoint ways with which a user’s path can be predicted.
The project was divided into 3 parts:
 Design application layout (UI mockups).
 Code and features implementation.
 Test code, bug fixes and improvement.
The program “Pencil” was used in the UI design. The code implementation was split into 2 parts, the implementation of the application/user and the Server. The Server processes the user’s data and sends the results back to the user.
The main results of the application are:
 Identifies the user’s location.
 User can sign up and/or edit his/her personal information.
 Show statistics in the form of graphs.
 Notify a user when an incident occurs with an (audible) alert/notification.
 Calculate next user location.
 Show initial and next location of user on map.
