Computerized filling station management system

Abstract

In the current scenario, replacing the human efforts into automated digitalized mechanism has become a vast growing factor. Human race has become far more independent than they were in the past. Every field has reached their goal of user friendly, in which the actions of a person are controlled by software. However, this is not applied in most of the petrol bunks. Normally in petrol bunks there is a Human to Human interaction. Our project is to overcome this phenomenon by bringing the interaction between Human and Software. By following this mechanism, we can avoid all the errors that a human does and also avoid the cheating activities that a culprit laborer performs in his work. Our project idea is to make the entire process performed by human laborer in a Filling Station into automated digitalized mechanism to avoid small errors and cheats that can be performed by the laborer to their owners. Our system consists of RFID READER to be placed in the Filling Station and all the vehicles must be provided with RFID TAGS. When the RFID READER senses the RFID TAG that holds the customer id, it sends the id to the centralized server, verifies the ID and opens the gate, the database in the centralized server consist of all banking details of the customer that can be fetched automatically after the confirmation of the user for the cost of the fuel. At present using RFID technology in automating the filling station including the transaction process have created the idea that it is not secure, so we use advanced cryptographic techniques like Secure Socket Layer (SSL) cryptography. AES — Advanced Encryption Standard Symmetric Cryptography to make sure that the process is secured and efficient. All the customer's ID details and total amount of fuel dispensed from the filling station will also be stored in a separate database for the filling station owner's view and also sent to user's registered mobile number using GSM technology.
