Collection Automation, Zigbee Communication, Dynamic Traffic RoutingAbstract
Toll collection systems have evolved over time, with the introduction of cloud computing. A proposed system combines contactless payment methods, cloud-based services, and real-time data processing to improve toll collection. The system's central control unit is a Raspberry Pi board, which connects parts and the cloud. The toll booth uses an RFID scanner to recognize RFID-tagged vehicles, and the sensor module captures real-time data from cars passing through stations. The system also features an LCD screen for user and toll booth manager information. Vehicle information and collected data are securely transmitted and stored in a centralized database for processing via cloud integration. This allows for real-time monitoring of toll transactions, automatic toll charge calculation, and seamless payment gateway integration. Contactless payment technology, such as electronic wallets and smartphone apps, enhances user comfort and facilitates a secure toll collection process. The system reports and analyzes data via cloud services, enhancing transportation planning, optimizing toll pricing strategies, and understanding traffic patterns.
