Drive Silent

About Drive Silent Android App

In driving mode, the profile will be changed into silent and also the message will be sent to the call-maker. GPS data is utilized to find whether it is normal mode or driving mode. The reason for this application is to change the cell telephone profile is to ensure safe and smooth driving system.
Present driving system does not integrate technology with the system. In this paper android based profile management system for driving is proposed. Our proposed method will be effective in-terms of automation, time consumption, accuracy and efficiency.

PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In this project GPS is utilized to track the speed of a person. From speed it can be evaluated that the vehicle is in driving mode or not. If it is driving mode the phone profile will be changed to silent mode. If anybody calls him/her, then the call will be disconnected and the message will be sent to the person who tries to contact a person who is in driving. The message will be in the following format: “The person you want to contact is in driving. So please make a call after sometime. If it is urgent please make a call 3 times.” If the person called more than 3 times the phone profile mode will be changed from silent to normal mode. Otherwise no change will be made.

GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS):
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space based navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. The system provides critical capabilities to military, civil, and a commercial user around the world The United States government created the system, maintains it, and makes it freely accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver.

SPEED CALCULATION:
Speed is calculated using the data available from the GPS. Position difference is used to calculate the speed of the vehicle. At last position difference is converted into speed.

THRESHOLD:
In this project call count threshold is 3. If the person called to the person who is in driving more than 3 times then the phone profile will be changed from silent to normal.

CALL COUNTS:
Call counts represents the no of times the third person try to connect with the person who is in driving.
GLOBAL SYSTEM FOR MOBILE COMMUNICATION (GSM)
GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) is a digital mobile telephony system. GSM uses a variation of time division multiple access (TDMA) and is the most widely used of the three digital wireless telephony technologies (TDMA, GSM, and CDMA). In this project GSM is used to send the message to the call maker.

MANUAL IMPLEMENTATION:
In android based accident prevention system, there are 2 operating modes. User can choose one mode according to his/her need. Two operating modes are
1. Auto-driving mode
2. Manual driving mode
Auto-driving mode:
If the user chooses auto-driving mode, the profile will be changed to silent mode according to the speed.
Here the speed is calculated using GPS data. This mode will not be effective at the place where GPS is not available. Phone profile will not be changed when there is no availability of GPS even if the person is in driving. To overcome this problem manual driving mode is introduced here.
Manual driving mode:
If the manual driving mode is chosen by the user, phone profile will be changed to silent without the consideration of speed. This will be effective at the time at-which GPS data is not available. User can use this mode when he/she is in meeting.

SETTINGS:
Message to be sent to the call maker can be edited by the user using the menu settings.
