Tollbooth Automation Using Smartcard Data

Tollbooth automation using smartcard data (RFID tag) echoes the technology which has strong aspects in minimizing the huge overhead as well as the inconvenience in proper collection of toll at tollgates. RFID technology is used to overcome the major issues of time consumption and vehicle congestion. By using this system, there is no need of manual transaction. A vehicle will hold an RFID tag which houses a unique Tag id (identification number). Whenever the vehicle passes the tollgate, the RFID reader mounted at the tollbooth will read the tag and automatically respective amount will be deducted from user’s account. The user comes to know about the transaction by mobile notification. So the toll transaction becomes easier.
