| Abstract |
The comfort on school buses has not had a concern on the policymakers and authorities, considering that the student who lives far from his home spends a considerable amount of time inside a bus. The time spent in the round trip to the school, and other kinematic parameters, mainly the acceleration and vibration, could affect student productivity at school, even time spent in the home with relatives. Improving this service could be an excellent strategy to ensure the well-being of the student. This paper presents the prototype of a low-cost system based on the IoT paradigm, as a solution that will allow parents, teachers, school board directors and regulators to track and study the comfort perceived on-board, based on the accelerations, vibrations, temperature, and the noise registered along the roads traveled by bus. © 2019 IEEE. |
