Inspiration
Excessive braking on the road leads to increase in the number of carbon emissions.
What it does
Our approach to minimizing fuel consumption involves tracking the frequency and location of braking in trucks. We will analyze extensive historical data to identify areas where brakes are frequently applied, which may be due to factors such as bumps, pits, traffic lights, or other conditions. In the event that frequent braking is caused by a pit or bump, we will report this information to the appropriate government agency for repair. Alternatively, if the problem is with a traffic light, we can consider to develop a traffic light control system to reduce the numbers of brake.
What is the problem?
The act of braking leads to an increase in CO2 emissions.
What is the solution?
Identify the locations where issues occur on the roads, investigate the reasons behind these issues, and report them to the relevant department or consider to develop a traffic light control system to reduce the numbers of brake.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We conducted a real life experiment here in St John's and deduced the date from that into our presentation to give conclusions.
