Subject: IKOT La Salle Tracker
Introduction and Recommendation
In the past 6 years of implementing a jeepney transportation or also known as Ikot La Salle is very helpful in the University. Walking inside the campus in 27 hectares is not appropriate; students, faculty, and also visitors can ride in Ikot La Salle. With the help of Ikot La Salle it will just take 2-5 minutes in the route of Magdalo Gate (Gate 1) bound to Magdiwang Gate (Gate 3) instead of eight to ten minutes. Ikot La Salle helps the students, to lessen their time spending in walking. But one of the problems that you will encounter is you will wait for the Ikot and it will took so much time and there is an instances that you are waiting for the vehicle and yet it is in breaktime. One solution for this problem is, Ikot La Salle Tracker. It is a device that determined the exact location of the user (it is also where the GPS unit is located).
Cost and Benefits
Usage of GPS Shield, GPRMS/GSM Shield and GizDuino microcontroller in developing Ikot Tracker will benefit the university. These are the device attached to the jeepney, it receives data through sms and displays its current location in the areas plotted in the map and has corresponding pictures to be clearer on its location. It should have an application and must be downloadable in smartphones to make an update to the students, faculty, and visitors whom are interested to have a ride for Ikot La Salle. For installing these devices it will cost P3, 000 and for making an application for this tracker will range P1, 000 to P2, 000.
Conclusion
Ikot La Salle tracker will help a lot and also benefits the school for this technology. A tracker can help us determine exactly where the vehicle at any given moment. Not only can a tracker give you the name of the
