摘要
A revenue collection system 100 used in a road-based passenger transport vehicle 200, such as an electronic ticketing machine installed in a bus, comprises a ticket processing system; a location device providing the current location of the vehicle; at least one vibration sensor for sensing vibrations of the vehicle; and a facility for recording the sensed vibrations of the vehicle in conjunction with the current location of the vehicle, providing a record of the sensed vibrations together with the location of the vehicle. The vibration sensors can be accelerometers or gyroscopes and can detect linear movement and rotation. A computer may be provided to detect abnormalities in the operation of the vehicle from the vibration data by comparing the received vibration data to a known vibration profile for the vehicle. The known profile can be based on the sensed vibrations of vehicles that have travelled the route. A warning to the vehicle driver can be provided when the abnormality is detected. Further disclosed is a remote computer system 220 arranged to receive and process vibration data collected by road-based passenger transport vehicles in order to update vehicle profiles, route profiles or detect abnormalities in the data.
