Smart School Bus Monitoring and Notification System using Rfid and Gps

Umuhire Cedric1 , Mbanzabugabo Jean Baptiste2*

The Internet of Things (IOT) as a paradigm promises to make things including consumer electronic devices or home appliances such as medical devices, fridges, cameras, and sensors part of the internet environment. Within this paper, the design of an IOT-based solution of smart school bus monitoring that provides SMS notification in real-time has been proposed together with its prototype development. The system allows parents and schools to track the condition and safety of children by using a combination of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Global Position System (GPS) technologies connected to a remote server using GSM/GPRS technologies through Arduino Uno and Arduino IDE. This resulted in a Smart School Bus (SSB) system consisted of six main components and seven subcomponents to solve one of the key challenges in the City of Kigali with no trustworthy system in place that can monitor school buses and be able to provide real-time information for children's locations while commuting to school. The practice of diverse devices, communication rules for software features, and security instruments was a hard encounter which SSB system faces and should balance to provide its features and ensure responsive services.
