II. LITERATURE SURVEY

Car Talk 2000 Car Talk 2000 is focus on new driver assistance system based on inter-vehicle communication. Radio network use as a Communication. That help to communicate with other vehicle. “HelpMe” didn’t use radio network as a communication. Because the system using android operating system and user can locate mechanic by using GPS. CarTALK 2000 is a European Project focusing on new driver assistance systems which are based upon inter vehicle communication. The main objectives are the development of co operative driver assistance systems on the one hand and the development of a self organising ad-hoc radio network as a communication basis with the aim of preparing a future standard. (Reichardt, 2002). A car breakdown service station locator system Findings- The On-Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance is like a car breakdown service station locator. But there is a chat platform to discuss the type of breakdown and exchange ideas about vehicle breakdown.

At this point, the Car Breakdown Service Station Locator. System will be developed on Android platform due to the time constraint and a lot of research need to be done to develop the system. Development of this system on other platforms such as IOS and windows will be considered in the future if good feedbacks are being received from the users. The scope of this system will focus on searching the nearest CRSP for the drivers, providing help to people who do not possess any mechanic’s number in hand. The business deal is between the CRSP and the driver which is out of the system’s control. (Monica, 2018) 10. Emergency Breakdown Assistance KitEmergency breakdown Assistance Kit is an automobile emergency signaling kit, that shown “HELP” in front transparent panel. Below the HELP sign indicate the specific nature of the disable. In On-road vehicle Breakdown Assistance didn’t display any special sign in front panel.

There are need mechanic for identify the nature of the disabled. As a consequence, our emergency vehicle breakdown service provides superior location results. Our programme quickly detects nearby locations, which is extremely valuable for users in emergency situations. It also features an offline mode that provides recommendations when the internet is not available. This technique simplifies the user experience and outperforms the old system in critical situations. (Sophie, 2001)On-Vehicle Breakdown-warning report system Findings- On-Vehicle Breakdown-Warning Report System installs an electronic control panel and when the occurring breakdown detected and shown the signal on control panel. That may be help to detect the breakdown type before the major breakdown the vehicle.

On-Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance (HelpMe) couldn’t detect any special breakdowns and didn’t show any specific signal about breakdown. An on-vehicle breakdown-warning report system is disclosed. An occurrence of break-down is detected and judged based on a signal in an electronic control system installed on a control apparatus for an engine ignition system, a charging system, an engine fuel system, a engine cooling system, a power transmission system, and an oil lubricating system of an automobile or a diagnosis display system; and a diagnostic data is sent to an information terminal device of a diagnosis and maintenance agency or a service company having a diagnosis and maintenance agency as a contents information by using an on-vehicle mobile communication apparatus, and an action for an emergency measures and a maintenance schedule is asked. (Masahiko, 2000).Geo Location Tracking System and Method is geo tracking routing from point to point in geographical location. In “HelpMe” there is a location tracking based on user location. User can search the spare parts shops based on their location. With recent technological advancement of modern science people are now expecting the information about the location of any object for tracking purposes.

Presently, we want more location-based services for being advanced and to save time and money also. GPS is a system which is already implemented and everyone can access it without any restriction. Having the facility of GPS to develop this system we need a GPS device to calculate the location from the information taken from GPS (Morales, 2016)

.Vehicle Breakdown assistance. This application is used to find nearby area mechanics while we suddenly stranded on the remote locations with mechanical issues of our vehicle. It is a good solution for the people who seek help in the remote locations. In this, the approved mechanics are enlisted in this application. Also they are under monitored by this system for not charging any extra service fee from the users.

This can be monitored by the admin through the user feedback based on their service. The registered users can access this application. This application will help to reduce wasting user time to found a proper mechanic.

When the vehicle breakdown occurs the driver have to see a mechanic or the repair shop. The driver has to ask for help from the people. If driver using this vehicle break down assistance user can find mechanic basis on user location easily. Driver can get the mechanical help directly and easily. If there are any need of spare parts while repairing the vehicle, the user have to looking for spare parts shop. When the breakdown occurs user can find repair shop or spare parts shops also. This is help to save user’s time while the traveling.

When the breakdown occur, user can fix their vehicle immediately. They won’t waste their time on the road. That help to save their valuable time. That make comfortable the user. They won’t make tired their journey. There is a chat platform that user and mechanic can chat. There user can ask question that related to vehicle breakdown. The mechanic can reply for that. This is help to improve user’s technological knowledge about vehicle.

There is user can make star rate to mechanic after the repair done. That is help to burnish the mechanic skills. It helps to outrank them self. The methodology for implementing the "On Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance" system involves a structured approach, encompassing system design and development, database creation and management, user registration and verification, and the establishment of a robust network of licensed mechanics.
