Abstract

This paper presents an interactive application to be used in an important entertainment place visited by young, old and children on holidays and vacations to spend fun times. The system consists of the zoo's mobile application, quick response (QR) code technology as front end, and network system as back end. The mobile application helps the visitor to scan the QR tag that attached on each animal's cage to send the request to a network system that processes the request and returns the result to the visitor's mobile screen in the form either text or text to speech. on the other side, the network system consists of a network provider to provide services that enable the visitor's mobile to access the system and the main server which contains animal's information in three languages; English, Arabic and French. The system provides several capabilities, such as playing audio files stored in the server which contains the animal’s voice. The visitor can also see a list of pets that the zoo administration has offered for sale where the visitor can buy any pet that he/she wants. The aim of this system is to facilitate the visitor's tour of the zoo by using modern technology to make the tour fun and non-routine.

Highlights

  • Due to the great development in information technology and the widespread use of smart mobile devices in most areas of life, researchers always think about combining several aspects to be useful for human life [1]

  • There are a lot of mobile applications that have been used in many public institutions and places such as universities, libraries, museums and markets for the purpose of facilitating the work of these institutions

  • The two dimensional barcode was invented in 1994 by Toyota Motors to tracks vehicles and parts during the manufacturing process[5].The quick response (QR) code is a two-dimensional array that stores data both vertically and horizontally whereas the barcodes are parallel lines which stores the data in one dimension only[6]

Summary

Introduction

Due to the great development in information technology and the widespread use of smart mobile devices in most areas of life, researchers always think about combining several aspects to be useful for human life [1]. There are a lot of mobile applications that have been used in many public institutions and places such as universities, libraries, museums and markets for the purpose of facilitating the work of these institutions. This can be summarized by reducing the time and efforts of their workers as well as meeting the needs of people entering these places and providing the. Several techniques have been used to develop and design these systems such as RFID, BARCODE and QR code[4]. The quick response code is characterized by its ability to correct errors because it contains four levels L,M,Q,H and Reed Solomon codes [7],[8]
