TalkyCar
TalkyCar connects your vehicle with your smartphone, making your driving safer and efficient. We use a small plug and play gadget, installed in diagnostic port, the same used in mechanic workshops, usually allocated under the steering wheel. It is very easy to install and it is compatible with most of the vehicles. TalkyCar tracks all your trips, with fuel consumption and routes, scoring your driving style according to fuel efficiency, to reduce your fuel consumption, providing advices, like over RPM alarms. Also, with TalkyCar you can manage your fleet, view usage, improve the routes, and offer better service to customers. But the most important feature is that TalkyCar detects crashes, advising medical services and relatives with your position.
Goals and Challenges
We have already developed a solution using a big amount of enablers, all together. Our challenges is to provide a really useful solution ready for end clients and companies with FIWARE backend infrastructure and to be able to supply the devices with the required places and quality to our customers.
The choice of FIWARE
We chose FIWARE to ensure the compatibility with Smart-City environments, directly installable on to a city back-end, and compatible with other related solutions developed using FIWARE.
Products developed within FIWARE
TalkyCar Backend was developed with FIWARE technology inside. Our API connects the front end (Web page and mobile apps). We have also developed Wi recloud Interface for FIWARE Users with some widgets to visualize the data.
Benefits and acomplishments.
If your solution uses FIWARE, you are compatible with a Smart-City and IoT platform, that is a de facto standard for european Smart-Cities, thanks to a context awareness and standard protocols, like NGSI9/10. This is a key point of Fiware. FIWARE is an open and free technology, independent of any company, that you can deploy in anywhere. Also, you have a test environment, FIWARE Lab, very useful for developers to speed up their projects. Also, as a part of Finodex, our FIWARE accelerator, we have a lots of opportunities to show or product, improving our project's visibility.
