Abstract

This work presents the methodology for

the identifi cation of events or potentially

dangerous situations in road traffi c, using a

vehicle type fi tted with conventional electronic

devices. This development represents the

basis of the design, development, construction

and testing of an intelligent system of

transport (ITS) to monitor a road network

in order to identify and locate accurately

points roads where situations arise that can

be potentially dangerous driving and that,

therefore, may have as a consequence an

accident. On board system consists of a

hardware which includes a mobile terminal

BlackBerry from the manufacturer RIM

(Research In Motion), equipped with GPS

and internal accelerometer and possibility to

connect bluetooth and wireless interfaces for

reading and transmission of data from the

vehicle CAN-bus.
