Schools ferrying students from their campus to respective drop locations would like to have a log of which students got in/ got out of the bus and at what time. This would give the school management the precise data of each and every student picked up in a given day followed by sending confirmation alerts to respective parents/ guardians via SMS or email. Implementing RFID readers in the buses will let the attendant in the bus to automatically scan the tags worn by students by using a handheld reader.

How it works?

Option 1

	Buses are installed with a GPRS enabled Multi Protocol Reader where the students have to scan their ID cards to log into the bus. Similarly, the students while getting out of the bus have to scan their ID Cards at the entrance to log out of the bus.
	The collected data can then be transferred automatically to the application by the MPR using GPRS. Based on the collected data, reports and alerts can be generated.

Option 2

	Attendant in each of the bus are given a handheld reader that can scan the ID cards of students as they get into the bus
	The Unique ID (UID) in the RFID Tag is stored in the handheld reader
	The students who have been issued with a RFID ID Card can use the same card for getting logged into the bus
	After arriving at the school, the helper can scan each of the tag as the students walk out
	Scanning of an RFID tag takes place in milliseconds, ensuring quick movement of students from the bus
	All the stored information in the handheld reader can be downloaded onto the application
	Using an USB or an Ethernet port, reports and alerts can be generated
