Abstract :
We introduce a vehicular automation system to promote a bus service. The system provides two kinds of services to passengers. One is a voice announcing service. The other is an LED matrix display service. The voice announcing service reminds the passengers of the newly approaching station. The LED matrix not only displays the name of the station but also displays the driving status of the bus so that the passengers have more time to prepare for disembarking at the station. The combination of these two services makes the system more user friendly
