Abstract:
"
The risk of increasing a road accident significantly increases if the driver makes a
glance off the road to engage in a distracting task like looking at the mobile phone. In
order to improve road safety, gamification elements could be incorporated to change
the driver behavior to drive more carefully and attentively. In an effort to provide the
solutions to the public, the existing systems need to be minimized into the palm of the
hand of the user. This project demonstrates a mobile based gamification system which
uses the user’s iPhone to provide gamification while bearing no additional expense to
the user. The proposed solution shows significant ease of accessibility of gamification
solutions which is able to be targeted to increase the safety of both the road and for
drivers."
