Abstract
In conventional systems of Toll Plaza, the operators collect the toll fee from the vehicle drivers and acknowledge it with a receipt. This manual process is time-consuming and causing a longer waiting time for the vehicles to stay in the queue. In recent days, one of the advancements made in the Toll Collection system to reduce the waiting time of vehicles is the RFID FASTag method. It permits electronic payment and speeds up the toll collection process. This paper proposes a solution to overcome the drawbacks of the currently used RFID FASTag - such as double deduction of payment from the customer account and the physical damages to RFID FASTag. This method ensures the automated cashless quick transaction at toll centers with the assured single deduction of payment for the trip. Arduino IDE is used to program Node- MCU, having an in-built Wi-Fi facility to notify the owner about the location of the car.
