Abstract
Malaysia is a modern Muslim country where the research on Halal product identification is at the peak. In this study, the authors have developed the mobile application which is based on Radio frequency identification near field communication RFID/NFC. The author first developed the database based on the data from Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia JAKIM, which is Malaysian Halal logo identification authority then the mobile application which uses the Near Field Communication to detect the Halal food using the Radio Frequency Identification. In this paper authors have performed the experimental analysis by comparing the Barcode system that is comprised of parallel line detected by the simple webcam for the Halal logo identification and the new developed RFID NFC mobile application. Paired sample T-Test was performed by using the SPSS 23.0 version. The results revealed that there is significantly difference between the usability, efficiency, affordability, security and satisfaction. The users are more satisfied with the newly developed mobile application as compared to old halal logo system in Malaysia.
Highlights
Malaysia is modern Muslim country heading towards being a global Halal hub; it has been well-known as a successful halal-hub in the world since 1997
The NFC enabled radio frequency identification (RFID) mobile application was developed for the Halal logo recognition [16], [17]
To evaluate this research many qualifications attributed to this application were considered such as usability, efficiency, security, affordability and customer satisfaction
Summary
Malaysia is modern Muslim country heading towards being a global Halal hub; it has been well-known as a successful halal-hub in the world since 1997. At the 2007 world halal forum, Malaysia’s former Prime Minister, Tun Abdullah Haji Ahmad Badawi stated the government’s aim of establishing Malaysia as a global halal hub. These methods are time-consuming but on the other hand, cases misrepresentation and abuse of the halal logo have progressively been accounted by purchasers [8]. To handle this issue some researchers stated to do research on this and have implemented RFID technology while others have suggested using mobile or Smartphone gadget for validating halal products. Muslim consumers still face problems in validating halal products
