Bike Sharing & Rental System: An Android Application

Abstract

Bike sharing systems offer a low cost and environmentally friendly mean of transportation for short travels. It can also be used as a complementary mode to other public transit such as buses, local trains. Bike sharing systems combine the advantages of public and private transportation to better exploit the given transportation infrastructure. This will be an android application which will provide both sharing and rental service. A key aspect of this system is that it does not involve intermediaries between users and bike: reserving, acquiring and releasing a bike are all done automatically through software running on the system of user’s smartphone. It will provide bikes for short-term trips on sharing basis and bike on rent. A typical bike-sharing system includes a communal stock of sturdy, low-maintenance bikes distributed over a network of parking stations. From an individual person’s point of view, bike-share systems eliminates the inconvenience of bike ownership, the need to find parking places, and the fear of theft. It helps in reducing traffic congestion as number of vehicles on road can be reduced significantly.
