Abstract
In this poster, we propose a public vehicle-based urban sensing system, where sensor nodes are equipped to public vehicles and collect data as the host vehicle roams around a city. Compared with the urban sensor systems that employ static sensor nodes or personal mobile devices, our proposed system achieves a wide sensing area through the mobility of host vehicles, reduces initial investment by employing existing infrastructures and facilitates system operation and maintenance which can be executed in the car barn(s). In this poster, the system architecture and implementation details are described. A preliminary experiment is conducted to validate the proposed system.
