Abstract

SmartDrive makes use of Android smartphones, OBD-II plugs and on-device artificial intelligence to improve diagnostics and keep drivers safe. As a result, it lets users predict when equipment will fail and find any errors, supports driver monitoring and offers an inexpensive, secure and flexible option for proper vehicle management and safer travel.
