Automated Bus Fare Collection System is a combination of the hardware and software technology and is used in fare collection. The reloadable RFID card used in the system is a small plastic card utilizing Radio Frequency Identification technology for storing information. The system addresses concern of violations and malpractices of conductors, and for the transparency and security of fare collections of the bus companies. This study aimed to develop an automated bus fare collection system for public transportation specifically for buses with Tagbilaran City to Ubay, vice versa, route. It used quantitative-qualitative paradigm for the research design. A survey was conducted to gather the required data. The collected data was then used for data interpretation. Discomfort, inconvenience, and inaccuracy were the three main issues and concerns of the commuters. By using of RFID and GPS, the system collected, recorded and monitored the fare collection with the help of microcontroller Arduino Mega. It had addressed the issues on the discomfort of manual collection of fare, inconvenience on the part of the conductors and passengers whenever there's no change available, and the inaccuracy of fare; for those commuters of Bohol who did not receive the exact amount of change. Thus, this Automated Bus Fare Collection System is recommended.
proposed intelligent energy saving system has favorable and consistent laboratory results wherein it was shown that the system can detect human presence and control the operation of the fans and lights. Through this system, the authors wish to contribute in minimizing electricity consumption and help academic institutions save on their electricity bills.
