IoT-based Web Application for Passenger Travel Tracking System

Abstract

In this work, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Device) labels are used to create electronic transportation tickets for the public transportation system. Transport systems with cutting-edge innovations like RFID, IoT, and GPS will eventually gain popularity due to their advantages of greater comfort and higher ethical standards as compared to traditional transport systems or paper ticketing systems. In the proposed approach, the passenger is automatically identified by using their RFID card, and the fare according to the distance travelled by the passenger is automatically subtracted from the RFID card. GPS and RFID tags are used to increase the precision of fare calculation and passenger identification. The RFID system can replace conventional paper-based tickets since they are better because they are reusable and offer improved accuracy. This eliminates the outdated paper-based bus booking system and guards against money laundering and corruption. RFID tags are used as reusable tickets that calculate the fee based on the user's GPS-measured distance travelled. By using this system, human errors and effort are reduced.
