Bluetooth-enabled Solution for Traffic Monitoring

We created a custom Android Bluetooth/BLE-enabled application for a California-based transportation company that manufactures portable traffic detection devices and provides transport analytics services. The app is designed to assist road technicians with installation and management of traffic detection devices, and allows them to monitor road traffic via mobile phones.

Solution

The solution provides integration for client-to-server communication using a custom-written web service API and app-to-device communication via Bluetooth/BLE protocols.

The application enables road technicians to:

Automate the set-up process by exporting pre-defined camera and sensor bar settings directly to a traffic detection device;
Check device connection status (mobile Internet & GPS);
Access vehicle info (type of a car, manufacturer, model, production year and VIN);
View traffic data (including audio and video) generated by the devices;
Create installation and maintenance reports and upload them to a Cloud server.
