Electrical Vehicle Software design

Project Title

Electrical Vehicle Software design

Project Area of Specialization Computer ScienceProject Summary

Electric cars are the recent buzz in Pakistan. Especially after the approval of Electric Vehicle (EV) policy approved by the Government of Pakistan. All-electric vehicles (AEVs) run only on electricity. Most of them have range from of 50 to 100 km on a single charge, while a few luxury models have range of 400 km or above on a single charge. When the battery is depleted, it can take from 30 minutes (with fast charging) up to nearly a full day (with Level 1 or 2 onboard charger) to recharge it, depending on the type of charger and battery.

Our idea is to develop an Electric Vehicle Software which will provide services of transportation to civilians. The software is designed to have two interfaces: the user interface and the driver interface. Users will be able to see the live vehicles available to ride, in their locality. They will send a request. The driver connected from the other interface will positively accept the ride. To main a security system, the driver's and car performance will be tracked and analysed. The car can be locked to ensure the safety of the asset. 

Project Objectives

The World Health Organization estimates that 22 million people die each year from complications caused by air pollution. In the last 20 years, Earth is polluted rapidly. This results in the damaging of the ozone layer, which creates many health problems. Major incentives are required to protect our Environment from further serious distortion. Petrol or CNG vehicles are paramount contributors to air pollution. Shifting the Pakistani Transportation system to an EV based transportation system will help in reducing air pollution. To help people have clean air to breathe and reduce pollution in our environment, we came up with the idea of EV in Pakistan with its own digital application. The major objective is to modify the Pakistani Transportation system. A system totally digital with security insurance, helping in attaining a clean environment, and in control of user with some clicks.

Electric Vehicle Application will connect user and driver for a safe ride to their desired destination. The fare will be charged according to the kilometers and peak factors. The performance and battery status of the car will be monitored. It will be tracked live. This ensures the safety of the customer as well as driver and vehicle.

Project Implementation Method

In Electric Vehicle application there will be two interfaces one for electric vehicle’s driver and second for users. In driver interface there will be functionalities of accept ride, lock electric vehicle, track electric vehicle and battery status. Electric vehicle battery status that is remaining battery and battery estimation, all information of battery will gather through BMS (battery management system) and store to the cloud after that it will display on driver’s interface. In users interface user will ride the book for its desirable destination and track the driver. For now locations for destination  will be set locally (Pakistan). The fare will be calculated according battery status because electric vehicle will run on electric power not gasoline or CNG.

We will use following tools and technologies for making this application.

• Google Cloud
• Google maps APIs
• React native (crossplatform application)
• MySQL and Firebase
• Visual Studio Code
• BMS (Battery management System)
• Raspberry pi zero W

Benefits of the Project

• Economic Growth
• Jobs
• First Electric Vehicle and its application

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

• User will be able to book a ride
• User will be find nearest car 
• Driver will accept ride.
• Driver track battery performance
• Driver will lock car through application in occurence of theft and misplace.
