MobiScout: A Scalable Cloud-Based Driving and Activity Monitoring Platform Featuring an IOS App and a WatchOS Extension
share
MobiScout is an iOS software that monitors users' driving habits and physiological conditions while on the road. The Mobiscout app was created to provide a low-cost next-generation data collection and analysis solution for naturalistic driving studies. MobiScout collects real-time data, including physiological information from drivers in their normal driving conditions using sensors and cameras on mobile phones, smartwatches, and Bluetooth-enabled OBD equipment. The MobiScout software captures vehicle and driving data, including speed, braking, pulse rate, and acceleration, while the phone's camera captures everything inside and outside the car. Data captured can be streamed to cloud storage in real-time or persisted in local storage in WIFI dead zones. The information gathered will be studied further to better understand typical traffic behavior, performance, surroundings, and driving context among drivers.
