Fuel Efficiency Detector

Cars are the main mode of transportation in the world today. Specifically, in California, we are surrounded by streets, highways, and toll roads that thousands of cars drive on daily. However, cars use gas and california uses the most gasoline than any other state in the U.S., approximately 4,500 gallons per day. For our CPE 133 Final project, we decided to create system in which it could track the speed of a car and tell whether it exceeds the most efficient speed for the best gas mileage or fuel economy. This project would help drivers become aware of their fuel economy which in turn would hopefully help them save money, use less gas, and create less pollution in the air.”
