Abstract: The present invention discloses an integrated IoT-based intelligent public transportation safety and fleet monitoring system. The system comprises an RFID-based bus identification module for automated depot tracking, an infrared passenger monitoring module for occupancy and overcrowding detection, and a driver health monitoring module incorporating heartbeat, alcohol, and drowsiness sensors. A vehicle safety monitoring module comprising smoke, fire, and fuel leakage sensors detects onboard hazards, while an ESP32-based processing subsystem performs multi-sensor data fusion against predetermined safety thresholds. A GSM and GPS communication module transmits real-time alerts and vehicle location data to transport authorities, while a cloud-based dashboard provides fleet management, alert generation, and historical analytics. The system provides improved passenger safety, enhanced operational efficiency, reduced emergency response times, and scalable deployment across public transportation networks.
