 ABSTRACT

This case study presents the impact of IoT on daily use

vehicles taking into account a vehicle from one of the top
manafacturers of the world TESLA.It is intended towards
providing people an idea of how it is going to bring a
change in their day to day life.The system is so deeply
designed that people can feel themselves immersed in a
better ecosystem in which they have full control over the
things they own.High quality user interface,personal voice
assistant are there to improve the overall
experience.Security concerns whatsoever have been
addressed during testing and will be updated in the
future.The design has been made cost effective.

 OBJECTIVE

In general the objective of doing a case study is

to gain some expertise and understanding in that
particular field.Also one is faced with conditions
you have to analyze the situation really well.

After doing this case study we will be able to

understand the dynamics of IoT with relevance
to a car.We will also be able to understand some
basic iot programming.Over the course of study
if any vulnerability issues found will be
analyzed well and security improvements will
be worked upon.

SENSORS USED

FROM BUSINESS POINT OF VIEW

SENSORS USED

FROM BUSINESS POINT OF VIEW

Battery Life
•The biggest consideration with IOT is the battery life.
•The Tesla will drive between 150 and 400 miles
depending on the battery configuration, speed you drive
the car and various options you use while the car is on.
• It has various smart configuration options to reduce
power consumption and ways of telling you how you are
using the cars power now and over various time periods for
you to learn how to optimize its performance.
•Tesla is building a network of thousands of supercharging
stations over the next several years (worldwide) where you
may charge the car from empty to half full in 20 minutes or
replace the battery with a fully charged replacement battery
in 90 seconds( a lender battery), twice as fast as the time it
takes to fill an ICE car with liquid dinosaur even at a fast
pumping station.

fires. The ability of Tesla to fix the car without needing to
go into a shop and over the air is revolutionary.

The Future

•As the Android app capability has been turned on there

will be possibility to do lots more things with the car
•However, if some functions of the car itself are exposed
to apps you can imagine that there may be many additional
apps that have to do with functions of the car that broach
into security and privacy concerns.
•Also safety concerns from things as simple as distraction
of the driver to apps that actually modify the cars
functionality in unpredictable ways that cause a crash.
•In addition Tesla has said they are going to do like
Google, Microsoft and Apple and have a reward program
for those who discover vulnerabilities.

effect increases in a non-linear way with the number of
items that are connected. Some network effects could be
negative.
•For instance, the ability to reach a large number of cars
and hack them may mean for instance making large
numbers of cars fail on a highway at once.
•However, the thing we don’t know is what are the
network effects of having lots of IOT’s in the network and
people.
•New applications we can’t imagine today are possible and
could be revolutionary in terms of their impact on our
quality of life, efficiency or whatever measure you choose.
• For instance if we had lots of people who were being
monitored for their various biological parameters could we
figure out how to intervene before heart attacks occur or
could we diagnose people remotely for diseases or
problems?
•The car IOT is a good example. One of the things you
can do with a car API is to provide eventing. You can
detect events that occur based on any telemetry and let
other people know things or put business processes in that
automate activities.

Analytics

Another example of network effect is with bigdata. Bigdata

enables us to look smarter by accumulating lots of detailed
information on activity and looking at that detail to figure
out patterns that are of interest. For a car that could be
used on the car itself to improve the performance of the
car. A company is already doing that with Tesla. Smart
Trip Planner. It collects data about your cars performance
and stores that data for analysis. Already they use this
information to help you more accurately estimate the
energy consumed by going on different routes. Eventually
when the Android app capability is turned on later this year
there will be possibility to do lots more things with the car
and analytics we can produce from the car.

 CONCLUSION

This case study has been really informative.I came to

know many things related to IoT.My knowledge and
understanding in various aspects has become
deeper.From practical point of view applications and
implementation of IoT were new to me .I also got to
learn some basic programming using arduino board
and came to know about its various applications.

This case study has provided an insight into the IoT

ecosystem and its industrial applications.I hope it will
be helpful in my further projects in future.
