Sure but if I add all the above complications then I get automated bus tracking system where everyone on their phone can see where the bus is and when it's arriving, I can track and automatically detect issues with traffic, with the bus, with the driver.
Sure you can do the simple announce but the even easier one is to just have the driver talk over a mic, he needs one anyway. There I one upp'd you on KISS. But there is a reason not to KISS.
- danarmak 10y agoYou can publish wireless / Internet data on where the bus is, but keep the driver pressing buttons as the source of the data.
- wongarsu 10y agoThat's how it works in our (German) city. It works great.
- vidarh 10y agoHow often do you want the driver to press buttons? And how do you mark the intermediate positions in between bus stops? Because on any remotely complicated high congestion route, you will not get reasonable estimates if you only update at bus stops.
