IOT Based Automated Toll Collection System using NodeMcu and Blynk App

Abstract

India has to be digitalized in every manner imaginable given its continuous development and economic expansion. To lessen the line at the toll plaza and the amount of staff needed, the toll collecting system in India has to be digitalized. In this project, the RFID-based Automated Toll Collection System is used to reduce traffic congestion and guarantee system transparency. With the help of the suggested system, traffic jams on toll roads, bridges, and tunnels might be eliminated without the need of cash or the requirement that cars stop. This tactic is based on an electronic toll collecting system that utilises radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to identify a vehicle specifically employed for toll collection. The proposed RFID system uses tags that are fastened to the automobiles' digital licence plates, giving RFID readers access to the data contained on the tags. It is possible to reduce the need for vehicle owners and toll collection companies to physically issue tickets and collect tolls using this method. Vehicle owners and the toll authority may easily exchange information about toll payments. As a result, toll payment transparency may be ensured with minimal manual labour and human error. It will be easier to develop a smart transportation system as a consequence.
