Platform Independent enviroCar App
enviroCar is a Citizen Science tool that is used by citizens, traffic planners, scientists and companies to collect and analyze vehicle information in various traffic situations and gain insight to support the development of sustainable traffic concepts.
The enviroCar Android App connects with a car's onboard sensors via OBD-II and records the sensors data to generate real-time information like vehicle speed, revolutions per minute and calculates additional information, such as fuel consumption, estimated fuel cost and CO2 emissions. The only limitation being that it is only available for Android users.
This summer I will be working closely with the community and mentors of 52°North to lay the foundation of a platform independent enviroCar app to allow iOS users to access the amazing features of enviroCar.
