Resumen
Las pocas empresas en Ecuador dedicadas al desarrollo de dispositivos para monitoreo de la localización de personas venden a precios altos este tipo de equipos, incluso la aplicación tiene un costo aparte, esto hace necesario una solución. El objetivo del presente trabajo de titulación es el desarrollo de un sistema de monitoreo para individuos con discapacidad visual de la ciudad de Guayaquil, mediante el empleo de tecnologías actuales de comunicación y posicionamiento. Se realizó varios análisis comparativos de módulos electrónicos compatibles para el proyecto, logrando así diseñar un dispositivo conforme los objetivos planteados. Los elementos que componen el dispositivo son: el microcontrolador Arduino, una batería, un módulo GPS y otro GSM, inclusive una aplicación en Android. La aplicación desarrollada permite al receptor de la información solicitar la ubicación las veces que necesite, mediante mensajes de texto y visualizar la ubicación de la persona. Se puso a prueba el dispositivo en un entorno real, esto en zonas donde circula el transporte público, se obtuvieron una serie de coordenadas geográficas en lugares específicos para luego contrastar con los datos entregados por Google maps. El proyecto se culminó con éxito, el dispositivo puede ser empleado para mejorar la seguridad de las personas vulnerables en nuestra ciudad ya que las pruebas realizadas demostraron su efectividad.
There are few companies in Ecuador dedicated to develop devices for monitoring people’s location selling high-priced equipment, in addition the application has another cost and this makes the necessity to develop a solution. The aim of this work is to develop a monitoring system for individuals with visual disability in the city of Guayaquil, using communication technologies and positioning’s systems. There were conducted several comparative analyses about electronic modules adaptable for the project, there was a device designed according to its objetive. The core elements that compond the device are: the microcontroller Arduino, a battery, a GPS and other GSM module, including an Android application. The application developed allows the receiver of the information to request location the times that text messages are need and you could see the location from the application.The device was tested in a real environment, in areas where public transportation runs, also there were a series of geographic coordinates in specific places in order to contrast with the data provided by Google maps. The objectives of the project were reached with success, the device can be used to improve safety for vulnerable people in our city since these tests showed their effectiveness.
