Bus Tracking System

This is a project of students at Georgia Tech using Arduino. It’s a solar-powered bus-tracking system that shows students where the buses are on campus at any given time so they can decide if it’s quicker to wait for the bus or walk to their next class.

May be TransJakarta Busway should have something like this. Is TransJakarta have tracking system? Some people don’t want to wait too long, if they know it will come very late. It’s often I read complain about that, something like this: ‘Itu jg datengnya Luama, smpe hampir pingsan bdiri.’

You can see more about WAITLESS Bus Tracking System at their site, even the schematic and source code. By the way: another great project from university students abroad. Hope we’re more like this. Yes we can!
