Iranian Firm Produces Smart Monitoring System for Cars

"We produce fuel monitoring, fleet control and smart fleet devices that are capable of recording all vehicle information, including speed, routes, maximum speed and on and off time,” Seyed Morteza Mirzayee, the managing director of the knowledge-based company, told ANA.

“We also install temperature and humidity sensors for refrigerated vehicles that transport meat and perishables. In this way, we can control the vehicle remotely and anywhere in the country,” he added.

“We cooperate with organizations like mines that need to measure fuel consumption,” Mirzayee said.

In a relevant development in July, a technologist at another knowledge-based company in Iran told ANA that he and his teammates had designed electric bus body structures and platforms, adding that the company has now the capability of manufacturing buses, vans, etc.

“This company operates in the field of design and construction of commercial vehicle platforms of vehicles such as buses, minibuses and vans. Platform design includes body structure, skeleton structure, chassis prototype design and bus engine and gearbox chassis assembly,” said Saeid Shirazi, a technologist working for the knowledge-based company.

“We designed and produced the first electric bus in cooperation with MAPNA Group, which has been approved by the ran National Standards Organization (INSO),” he said.

Referring to the differences in the production of electric products of this company with other companies, he said, “Other companies imported electric cars from China or other countries, but our company did not. We comply with the 85 vehicle standards. We design our own body structures.”

“The first company that designed the body structure and platform of the electric bus in Iran was this knowledge-based company. This structure was unveiled for the first time in Mashhad. The prototype of the electric bus had three doors and the second model had two doors, and its dimensions have also been reduced,” he said, adding, “This knowledge-based company has begun producing 10 electric buses and it is decided to begin its mass production.”

“Batteries for electric buses is a serious challenge because … and of course it is being locally produced by some companies now,” Shirazi said.
