An android based ecodriving assistance system to improve safety and efficiency of internal combustion engine passenger cars
Recent improvements of communication technologies leads to several innovations in road vehicles energy consumption. As an example, several ecodriving applications already appeared on all smartphone application markets. Using embedded smartphone signals, such applications provide real time feedback to drivers according to their performances. However most of these applications does not take into account upcoming events such as curves, slopes or crossings to advise the driver on the best actions to undertake to lower energy consumption. Furthermore, they do not analyze data coming from vehicle sensors. In this paper, the authors present an android application, developed within the FP7 European project ecoDriver, which provides several innovative properties: advice according to upcoming events, a real time evaluation of the driving behavior, the analysis of past actions, an interface with OBD2 connector and some more. This paper further develops the complete architecture and links between each innovative function. Future works will concentrate on integrating image processing in this application in order to detect the possible presence of a front vehicle.
