Abstract

Today, the sensors and the Internet of Things (IoT) presence naturally in the people’s lives. Billions of interactive devices exchange information about variety of objects in the physical world. The IoT technologies affect the business processes of all major industries such as transportation, manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture, etc. Despite the fact that the IoT has a positive impact to both people and industry, it also provides benefits for the environment. The IoT is recognized as a powerful tool in the fight against climate change. More specially, it has a significant potential in saving carbon emissions. Taking into account the promising areas of IoT application, this paper proposes a solution for real-time monitoring of vehicles and detection of rising levels of carbon emissions, called EcoLogic. The EcoLogic consists of hardware module that collects sensor data related to vehicles’ carbon emissions and cloud based applications for data processing, analysis and visualisation. Its primary purpose is to control the carbon emissions through smart notifications and vehicle’s power limitations.
