Recent advances in embedded technologies have resulted in the growing capabilities of embedded system processors. Embedded system solutions became compatible with PC processors, which made it possible to transfer numerous intelligent services from the PC level to the level of embedded systems.
Microprocessor modules included in transportation management systems work with real-time operating systems and more sophisticated software applications. The availability of real-time information and analytics expands the capabilities of various specialized applications like fleet monitoring software, tolling management apps, ticket management, transportation pricing, traffic light controllers, traffic monitoring programs, and more.
Given that the main task of an intelligent transportation system is to improve route performance and enhance rider experience by collecting, transmitting, and analyzing data related to traffic, developers try to create efficient solutions for remote device management and control.
The easiest way to access specialized transportation hardware remotely is to share the devices over the network so that they can be accessed from a single data center over COM ports. However, this task may become rather challenging unless you have a dedicated port redirection technology able to forward serial port data over the Internet.
