Station-Less Bike-Sharing System

Abstract

Nowadays in the 21st century, Transportation has become a mandatory aspect of every individual’s life. There is a constant requirement for easy, cheap and accessible modes of transportation everywhere, especially in metropolitan areas. Bikes are becoming the most affordable and efficient way of getting from point A to point B. Commuters who can’t afford their own personal vehicles and in case their personal vehicle is not readily accessible to them struggle to get their commuting needs done. Tourists who need temporary transportation access can make use of bike-sharing systems for fulfilling their needs. The current system has fixed points or stations where the bikes need to be dropped off. We propose a system that does not involve any stations for the bikes and rather the user can drop off the bike at any location of his choosing and the payment process can be furnished on the mobile application.
