ABSTRACT
In present time due to increase in number
of kidnapping and road accident cases, parent always worry about their
children.
This paper proposes a SMS based solution
to aid parent to track their children location in real time. The proposed
system takes the advantage of the location services provided by module kit
which carry by the child in their school bag. It allows parent to get their
child location on a real time map by the geographical co-ordinates which send
by module kit. Information such as GPS co-ordinates and time are gathered on
the module kit.
The communication between the parent and
the child module kit is done using short message service (SMS). SMS offers the
system unique features. It will allow the system to work without the need of
internet connection. The system sends the location of child’s smart phone to
parent’s smart phone when the parent wishes to check on the child.

INTRODUCTION
Millions of children need to be moved from
home to school and vice versa every day. For parents, obtaining a safe
transport for their children is a crucial issue. The students ride their
bicycle getting to and from school safety. A research undertaken by the
Scottish executive central research unit with purpose of increasing the proportional
of non car travel to school reveals that travelling by bus or coach appears to
be by for the safest mode. Statistics suggest that a child travelling by car is
seven (7) times more likely to take part or be involved in a road traffic
casualty than a child travelling by our statistics from U.S.A, CANADA and
Australia also confirm that public transport (and school transport in
particular) has a high level of safety just an in Europe.
For instance, the Australian college of Road
safety notes that bus travel in the safest form of road transport, at least 14
times safer than the private car, and that the record for school bus travel in
particular is very good.
Also, the research undertaken by national
highway traffic safety administration in notes that when comparing the number
of fatalities of children aged 5-18 years during normal school transportation
hours, from 1989-1999 (school years). School buses are 87 times safes than
private cars.
To help-
avoid frightening and potential costly mistakes like these, this investigates
an RFID enabled solution to here monitor children when they are traveling to
and from school on stool buses. This system will transmit data via cell modem
to allow buses to be tracked from a command center at fleet headquarters, as well
as to the parent of that child.
As an
option, a push button emergency alarm can be installed that will send an alarm
to the monitoring station that the bus is in trouble. Another option that increased
situational awareness or the addition of biometrics that, can store locally the
identity picture sent periodically or on request from the command centre.

RESEARCH GOALS AND OBJECTIVE
The objective of this project is to develop an
affordable integrated monitoring system
to ensure our fleet security. Our goal is to develop a modular system to
maximize system flexibility to best meet the need of each school district. The
basic system will enable law enforcement to track vehicle using RHD and a
wireless data transfer mechanism that sends data to headquarters and allow to
law enforcement.
A module will be developed that will provide
co-operate system for identification and tracking of individual system and
driver, including where and when they board and exit the bus. A module for additional on board
monitoring will developed including sensor and student data as using
Biometrics.
This
research showed that RFID technology is a practical option for monitoring and
tracking the children their trip to and from school on school buses. Lab and
field trials confirmed that the RFID tags functional well under different
conditions. The reading were consistent and resulted read ranges that were
acceptable within the constraints of locating children stopped into the wrong
bus, left the bus and left behind in the bus, the cost associated with begging
of material is relatively low. It should
be noted that the work completed in this
research is the first phase of the project. Future work including combining RFID
tracking with an information management system will result in detailed children
tracking that will provide different application to the users, Once the most
phases are complete, the system will be capable of notifying parents via SMS
when the child water/leaves the school, enabling school authorities, fleet
owners and parent to keep track of the our online, helping transporters and
authorities to plan and manage the bus routes better, saving money and ensuring
smooth and quick rides to the different destinations.

DEFINITION OF TERMS
- Radio-Frequency
Identification (RFID)
Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and
tracks tags attached to an object. The tags contains electronically stored information.
RFID tags
are used in many industries, for example, an RFID tag attached to an automobile
during production can be used to track active
or battery assisted passive.
Tracker:- As a way to know geographical position
A RFID +
Tracker: Complete Solution
Where about of the individual items/person can be
determined where person: carrying RFID
(No tracker needed)
Vehicle: Fitted with tracker.
RFID
combined with tracker has a diversified utility an will be evident in the
subsequent slides.

User Advantages
(Benefit to parent)
1. You can complete traceability of childs
movement from home to school and back.
2. You get instant information/Alerts about
Arrival at pickup and drop off stops. Boarding and Alighting at school and
stops entering and eating school premises.
Benefits to school
management
1. You get
exact information about the moving fleet
2. You get
information about drives functioning i.e Breakdown alerts e.t.c
