An Android App For On Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance

ABSTRACT

The project entitled as “An Android App for on Road Vehicle Breakdown
Assistance “, which has been developed using Android Studio framework. Here
XML with Java as the front ends and SQLite server as the back end.

The proposed application helps to find mechanics easily and quickly. It is

difficult to find mechanics nearby area wherever you are travelling. This system
helps to overcome this issue by providing mechanic details in one click. Here the
locator allows you to search mechanics from different locations. The main
objective is to provide a better service and to make the process easily and finally
appointing a mechanic quickly. Proposed system is accessed by three entities
namely, Admin, Mechanic and User. A mechanic can perform task such as viewing
request received from users and can also send feedback to the admin. The
application helps you to find your nearby service centers in case of emergency
situations like insufficient fuel on vehicles and un-avoided incidents like puncture,
break failure, doping etc. These systems will ultimately allow you to better manage
resources.

EXISTING SYSTEM
 In present system every work is carried out manually. The present system is
much time consuming. Hence for that more human resource is needed and a huge
amount of time is needed for it. This present system is mainly carried out because
it is very difficult in case of vehicle has some complaint means get a mechanic for
service. In present system customer have to walk in directly to workshop to get the
mechanic .This system does not have any facilities to get and view the mechanic
details easy way. The main drawbacks of the existing system can be summarized
as follows:

DISADVANTAGES

 Time consuming process

 Needs of man power
 Difficult to get mechanic information.
 Maintaining all the information’s in records so it is difficult.

PROPOSED SYSTEM

The drawbacks, which are faced during existing system, can be eradicated
by using the android app. The main objective of the proposed system is to provide
a user-friendly interface. The system, which is proposed, now computerizes all the
processes involved in vehicle on road service. Project proposes a new
technique to the android application which can be used when a vehicle has some
complaint in between a trip the journey In such a situation, the registered user can
login to this application and request for a mechanic. The application will list out
the registered mechanics in that area. The user can pick a mechanic and request for
his service. After selecting the mechanic, the user can send his current location to
the mechanic. The user can also request for some spare parts if needed. Proposed
to make the new system extremely user friendly. This should develop to
Minimizing the manual process.

ADVANTAGES

 This application will reduce manual work and maintain updates in database
from time to time
 Data is secured and easy to retrieve old mechanic records in a short time

 Easy To Get Mechanic Information.

 Easy To Get A Spare Parts

 Data redundancy avoided

 Easy report generation

MODULES

1. Enrollment/Authentication
2. Profile uploads process
3. Gps Location Finding
4. GPS Navigation process
5. Service Assistance request
6. Service confirmation
7. Review process

MODULES DESCRIPTION

1. Enrollment/Authentication

In this register module fully helps to user and service mechanic. This module
helps users and mechanic to register them with the mobile application. Registration
is mandatory. This mobile application provides security features through
username-password. User and mechanic can login into this mobile application
based on the role page will navigate.

complete information such as name of service workshop, type of service, location,
timing, service payment info, contact, Address info,etc.This complete information
will be maintain separate table.

3. Gps Location Finding

This modules helps to Allows fetch location from the GPS receiver or from the
network-based location services. This module is used to the GPS use find the
person location tracked by satellite and that time collect data and in to the unit. The
GPS location finder Person tracking unit has a wireless modem inside the Android
Smartphone’s. This modem is used to communicate with Global Tracking’s
systems. The GPS data is sent directly from the person’s data to our servers.

4. GPS Navigation process

A GPS navigation device is any device that receives signals for the purpose
of determining the present person location. The GPS navigation device is used to

These modules for user they can post review to particular service
mechanic .Once user post the review means this information maintain table. Any
user can view review based on review they can select mechanic easy and effective
manner.
DATA FLOW DIAGRAM

DFD depict hoe data interact with the system. DFD are extremely useful in
modeling many aspects of a business function because they systematically
subdivide a task into basic parts, helping the analyst understand the system that
they trying to model data flow diagram models a system by using external entities
from which data flow to a process which transmission the data and creates output
data which goes to other processes on external entities of files. Data may also flow
to process as inputs.

The symbols appearing in the DFD has been explained below:

- Represents a process

- Which shows data flow

- Designation of the data

- Shows Data source
