Smart Car

All you need to know about smartening the car!

Today, a lot of attention is paid to the field of smartening cars. The use of onboard computers, sensors, and controllers that make a car smart has led to many of the advancements we've seen in the transportation space. Smart car owners can learn more about their cars to make adjustments and improve their performance by using the Internet of Things (IoT) and the data it provides from their vehicles.

The concept of a smart cars and smartening of cars by using the Internet of Things (IoT)

Smart car is a term that has been used since the late 1960s for cars with advanced electronics and microprocessors that have steadily increased throughout the engine to improve stability, braking, and general comfort. In fact, the underlying concept of a smart car is that it frees the driver from doing many mundane tasks related to driving and makes driving and the road more enjoyable. Therefore, a smart car is a car that is controlled by a computer and drives itself, which is also called a “self-driving vehicle” or “driverless car”.

At the same time, the term “smartening of the car” refers to the use of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, which involves the use of things such as sensors, modules, and microcontrollers in vehicles and using them as an intelligent central management system to improve the car's performance. It refers to communication between vehicles, fleet management, etc. Embedded Internet of Things (IoT) solutions are revolutionizing today's cars and allowing car owners to experience many innovations in the industry. The purpose of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the automotive sector is to optimize human-machine interactions, which leads to the improvement of the daily activities of people in society.

The implementation of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the automotive industry can change everything!

One of the most exciting and challenging areas is the Internet of Things (IoT) in the automotive industry. Cars are one of the main components of most people's daily lives, and a smart car can help save people's time and money. In fact, there is always a need for a car with new features, efficient, economical, and of course extremely attractive in today's world.

Implementing the Internet of Things (IoT) for the automotive industry will bring the following benefits to manufacturers:

• Better data collection and analysis by improving the following and speeding up the entire production process

• Avoid certain financial risks and losses

• Higher industrial safety standards

• Equipment theft monitoring

By using the Internet of Things (IoT) to make cars smarter, their owners have a wide range of opportunities, such as:

• Monitor vehicle performance through a mobile phone application

For example, you can turn on the car engine remotely by pressing a button in the application installed on your mobile phone or even by sending voice commands; checking the fuel level; Or even simply opening and closing your car doors

• Ability to quickly access and check car information

The smartening of cars through the Internet of Things (IoT) provides the possibility of checking the health status of the car through a mobile phone. This means that predictive data related to the vehicle's technical performance is collected and analyzed in the intelligent central management system and alerts when signs of trouble are detected. This will provide an opportunity for safer driving and lower car maintenance costs.

• Tracking the vehicle's movement path in the mobile application

By using the Internet of Things (IoT) in the smartening of the vehicle sector, real-time routing and accurate recording of the vehicle's location online on a mobile phone application is easily possible. This feature will be very helpful, especially when stealing a car and tracking it.

• Intelligent troubleshooting system

As you know, in order to reduce depreciation and increase the life of the car, it is necessary to perform periodic services at specific time intervals. Imagine that it is possible to check the technical performance of your car in a smart way and without the need to visit authorized dealers of car manufacturers, and in case of problem symptoms, a data report can be viewed on your mobile phone. The intelligent diagnostic system is able to reduce the maintenance costs of your car by collecting, and analyzing data from the car engine and recalling this information at the necessary time.

• Remote management system of car charging in electric cars

We allow electric car owners to remotely control their car charging with the help of Internet of Things (IoT) technology. It is designed to connect the three basic elements of the charger, the board (the controller that is placed in the charger and connects to the server and sends commands), and mobile applications. By using the car charger remote management system, users can remotely control their charger with the ability to turn it on and off, adjust the charger power and switch between existing chargers. It seems that this application is one of the great uses of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the direction of making cars smarter.

Make your car smart with the IoTSmile platform!

As technology advances, so do our needs. Since most of us use some kind of car for our daily commuting, and on the other hand, we have a great desire to manage a wide range of our equipment and assets remotely, so the idea of ​​making the car intelligent through the Internet of Things (IoT) can be a suitable answer. For this in fact, by collecting, managing, and analyzing data on the IoTSmile automotive platform, each of us can experience a more driving pleasure.

• IoTSmile smart car security system

Internet of Things (IoT) technology makes the level of car security higher than ever. The cars have a central locking system that can be synced with the IoTSmile smart platform on your mobile phone. This platform helps you to be notified of any unauthorized access to the car immediately and take necessary security measures. Warning about opening and closing the car door, listening to the sound inside the car, as well as turning off the car by sending a remote voice command are other features of the IoTSmile smart car security system.

• IoTSmile smart car tracker

IoTSmile smart car tracker is one of the most up-to-date and efficient smart car tracker technologies, especially for those who are always concerned about the security of their car. It is safe to say that the IoTSmile smart tracker system is very accurate and the car owner can use this smart tracker without any worries. By installing a SIM card on the IoTSmile smart tracker, it is possible that in case of theft, the location of the vehicle along with its longitude and latitude will be provided to the owner of the vehicle.

Providing the history of the routes traveled by car is another prominent feature of the IoTSmile smart tracker.

• IoTSmile smart fuel display

One of the most warning signs that can be seen while driving is the fuel indicator, and always placing this indicator in the empty position causes stress to the driver.
