Thiruvananthapuram: A group of final year students of Electronics and Communication Engineering at the University College of Engineering have designed and fabricated a new system called the Vehicular Zonal Adaptation (VeZA) system which would automatically regulate the speed of the vehicle in a particular area such as school, hospital etc.
In this, specially designed transmitters would be fitted at various locations in the city and receivers fixed in the vehicles. Depending on whether a particular area is a school zone, a hospital zone or a no-parking zone,
VeZA will give automated inputs to vehicles on the road and activates the system raising an alarm and restricts the speed.
The system is in the developmental state and require further modifications to suit different types of vehicles.
