Taxi meter control systems work by measuring the distance and time traveled by a taxi and calculating the fare based on a preset rate, usually set by the local government. The system consists of several components, including a taximeter, a printer, and a communication device such as a radio, to keep in contact with the taxi company’s main base.<\/p>\n

The taximeter is a device installed in the taxi that measures the distance traveled and the time elapsed since the start of the journey. The device is typically connected to the taxi’s speedometer and uses sensors to detect the distance traveled. The taximeter also includes a clock that measures the time elapsed during the journey.<\/p>\n

Taxi systems are actually monitoring systems, rather than control systems, as they have no direct impact on the external environment.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>
