RFID Based Child Tracking System for Crowded Public Spaces

Abstract

This project is about creating a system to help parents and guardians track the location of their children in real time using RFID technology. By placing small RFID tags in a child’s belongings or wearable devices, the system can detect their movements as they pass by RFID readers set up in places like schools, parks, and malls. Each tag sends a unique ID to the system, which updates the child’s location continuously. Parents can check their child’s location on a simple mobile app or website and get alerts if the child leaves a safe zone or enters a restricted area, so they can respond quickly if needed. Designed to be low-cost and easy to expand, this system can be used in many settings to give parents peace of mind and help create safer spaces for children. For additional security, GPS may be added for outdoor tracking, making the system suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments.
