Final Year Project
Project Title
Waymore - Driver Scoring and Analysis System
Description
Using data from inexpensive IMU and GPS sensors, we identify and classify risk maneuvers, and consequently score the drivers, with the aim of quantifying driver behavior. Using this data, we intend to provide targeted feedback, to drivers, to help improve their fuel efficiency and reduce their exposure to risk. (Group Project-Interdisciplinary)
