Description

Smart Connected Bus Call System

The new type relates to a smart networked bus calling system, especially a smart networked bus calling technology that can achieve mutual information communication between bus drivers and passengers, so that the information about taking a bus is transmitted to the upcoming bus.

According to press, the bus transportation system plays an important role in modern urban transportation. The bus transportation system is not only an indicator of urban progress, but also an important driving force for linking urban regional development and activating local economy. In order to provide convenient bus information services, major cities in Taiwan have launched a variety of bus information systems in the past few years, such as smart bus systems, smart bus shelters, smart bus stops, bus routes and web pages. The bus arrival inquiry information system in the form of a mobile app, etc., hopes to improve the use efficiency of public transportation.

Furthermore, Taiwan is facing the arrival of an aging society, and more and more seniors are using the bus transportation system to go out by bus. As far as we know, although most of the current bus stops have a "waiting button" for the bus driver to see, it shows that most people are often afraid that the bus will stop at the stop; however, such a device only lights up at the front of the stop sign, and during the day It is not very clear at night, and the size of the lighted area is not significant. Once the bus driver's sight is blocked, the bus driver will not be able to detect whether someone is about to get on the bus at the bus stop, and will temporarily decelerate and brake temporarily when he finds it at a close distance, thus making it difficult for the elderly or those with limited mobility to get on the bus smoothly; or chasing The situation of not being able to catch up with the bus, thus causing inconvenience and trouble when the bus stops and passengers get on the bus to greet them.

In addition, some Taiwanese local governments have cooperated with related companies to develop apps for use on smartphones in the past few years, such as "Taichung Bus Pass" and "Taichung Bus", which can not only integrate buses Dynamic system and fare query, although the App can provide the estimated arrival time of the bus route and support the function of searching for nearby stop signs; however, the App cannot effectively integrate the bus stop button with the bus stop button. The notification function makes it impossible for the bus driver and passengers to achieve the purpose of mutual information communication, so that the information about taking a ride cannot be transmitted to the various buses that are about to enter the station, so that the boarding bell cannot be issued to remind the driver to stop and pick up passengers. Caused inconvenience and trouble when the bus stops and passengers get on the bus to greet them.

In view of the fact that the functions of the conventional bus station and the aforementioned App application software are not perfected, there is still a need for further improvement. After continuous design, trial production and testing, the new research and development results are finally produced.

The main purpose of this new model is to provide an intelligent networked bus call system, which mainly uses modular functional construction to integrate the bus stop button and the notification function of the upcoming bus stop, so that the bus driver and passengers can achieve the purpose of mutual information communication, As a result, the information about getting a ride can be transmitted to the various buses that are about to enter the station, and the boarding bell will be issued to remind the driver to stop and pick up passengers, so as to improve the safety and friendly service quality of the elderly, the weak, women and children. The technical means to achieve the above-mentioned main purpose include a line control center system, a mobile communication system, a first information device and a second information device. The first information device has a built-in GPS positioning module, and real-time The location data is uploaded to the line control center system. The second information device is set on the bus stop, and the bus stops are respectively set on the driving route. Each second information device is set with an identification code and is electrically connected to the waiting button. When the waiting button on one of the bus stops is triggered, Then a boarding request signal is generated, and the second information device uploads the identification code and the boarding request signal to the travel control center system through the mobile communication system; when the bus is about to arrive at the bus stop that issued the travel request signal, the travel control center system sends the request signal through the travel control center system. The mobile communication system transmits the boarding reminder signal to the bus, and after being interpreted by the first information device, the boarding reminder signal is output as the boarding reminder information representing the next stop to be stopped.
