Abstract

This research will explore an RFID-Based Smart Automatic Weight-Based Toll Collection System designed to address traffic issues and enhance transparency in toll collection. Our goal is to develop a digital toll collection system that is both time-efficient and automated. The research focuses on a weight-based toll collection system using radio frequency identification (RFID) technology. In this system, RFID tags mounted on vehicle windshields are scanned by RFID readers to retrieve embedded information, eliminating the need for manual ticket payments and toll fee collections by authorities. This system facilitates smooth data exchange between vehicle owners and toll authorities, leading to more efficient toll collection, reduced traffic, and minimized human errors. Additionally, the research includes a weight sensor to measure vehicle weight, blocking access to overweight vehicles.
