Digital Authenticator

Abstract

Indian Railways face a loss of 30 lakh crores annually, out of which 43% is contributed by the passengers travelling without a valid ticket and corruption made by Ticket Checker in case a passenger is caught travelling without ticket at a particular station. Moreover, since Indian railway has started from April 1893, improvements are gradually happening in the development of trains, stations and reducing queues for ticket, but not on ticket, still we are using paper ticket. In addition, paper tickets take more time for checking to ensure whether they are valid or not, like they have to check date of journey, time etc for validation. So to overcome above flaws and support “ Make India Digital” we have purposed our project “Digital Authenticator” at all railway stations, in which all passengers will be given a RF card on the basis of which the passenger will be authenticated. We have used two LEDs and a LCD screen and a gsm module interface for validation purpose of a passenger.
