IRJET- Automated Tollgate System Using Online Payment And Image Processing
0 likes71 views
This document describes an automated tollgate system using image processing and online payment. The system uses a camera at the tollgate to capture an image of the vehicle's license plate. Image processing techniques are used to recognize the license plate number, which is then compared to a database of registered vehicle numbers linked to online payment accounts. If the license plate number matches a registered number, the toll amount is deducted from the associated online payment account. This system aims to make toll collection more convenient by eliminating queues and allowing drivers to pass through the tollgate without stopping to pay cash. It is proposed to reduce congestion and waste of time at toll plazas.

Abstract - In our daily life, travellers pay an amount of
money in the form of tax through tollgate to the government.
The national highways have toll gates where people pay tax
for using the highways by standing in the queues. This will
cause in the break of journey and waste of time. To overcome
the waiting problem this system was proposed where
automatic toll tax will be collected from the people using
image processing and online payment of the money. In image
processing system the image of the number plate will be
captured and compared with the database. To capture the
image of the vehicle number plate the camera will be fixed at
tollgate. And in the online payment tax will be given where
money deduction will take place only if the usergetregistered.
This makes tollgate transactionmoreconvenientforthepublic
use.
Key Words: Image processing, Camera, Online payment.
1.INTRODUCTION
India is a country where we get to observe most extensive
National highways. Government plans various phases to
complete the projects under construction. The government
signs agreement with the private companies who build the
infrastructure like road, port and other stuff for a particular
span of time generally in years. The invested amount is
charged from the vehicles passing on that newly built
highway. This charged amount is called as toll tax.
Due to increasing in number of vehicles, the traffic is
increasing in tollgates too, which will cause inthewastageof
time near the tollgate by forming the queue. In most of the
tollgates the manual collection of tax will be done where
even the manpower is required. So the automatic toll
collection will need to be implemented. This will make the
collection of the toll tax easier and faster. To make the
automatic toll tax collection, image processing and online
payment is implemented in this project. Here the vehicle
crossing through the tollgate whosenumberplateimagewill
be taken by the camera where image processing is done and
this number is need to be compared with the database. The
user need to be registered himself before. Only if the user is
registered the comparison of the number will be done and
the tax will be directly deducted from the dummy account.
The benefits are:
1. Shorter queues at tollgates.
2. Faster service as not exchanging toll fees by hand.
3. No need to wait and request for receipts.
4. Increased capacity without using more
infrastructures.
2. LITERATURE SURVEY
A system which explains the problem of waiting period and
payment concerns in conventional manual toll collection
system. The paper proposes a system which includes
transponder, antenna, traffic controller system and central
server. The transponder is a RFID tag which has unique
identification number. It also stipulates the types of tags as
discussed in the paper[1].the traffic controllersystembuilds
a system differently from others. This system manages the
allocation of incoming vehicles across a set of parallel
tollgates. It makes use of lane allocation algorithm. This
algorithm allocates the gates entry for each of the car
approaching among the available set of tollgates.
Electronic Toll Collection System utilizes Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) [3] technology. A RFID tag is mounted
on each vehicle with unique ID. This ID is invisible on tag, it
contains all the information about the vehicle and owner.
When vehicle reaches at toll plaza tag will emit the radio
wave signal. RFID readerreceivesthesignal fromtag,decode
that signal and send to the ARM controller[4].Thecontroller
will display the vehicle number and amount on LCD.
Microcontroller is interfaced with computer to collect the
vehicle data through serial port for future use. When
accessed form database, it shows all the vehicle details on
computer screen such as ID, vehicle number, date and time.
Microcontroller checks the balance, if sufficient balance is
there, it deducts predefined amount from prepaid account
and update the balance in that account [3]. FASTag is a
simple to use, reloadable tag which enables automatic
deduction of toll charges and enables one to drive through
toll plazas without stopping for the cashtransaction.FASTag
is linked to a prepaid account from which the applicable toll
amount is deducted. The tag employs Radio-frequency
Identification (RFID) technology and is fixed onthevehicle's
windshield. FASTag can be recharged by making payment
through cheque or online through Credit Card/ Debit Card/
NEFT/ RTGS or through Net Banking.FASTagaccountcanbe
recharged up to a maximum of Rs 1 lakh and a minimum of
Rs 100. Toll Plazas may have a dedicated FASTag lane or
provision for validating FASTag through a handheld reader
[2]. You need to have some balance in FASTag in advance
whenever you travel.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/irjet-v6i41081-190727100605/85/IRJET-Automated-Tollgate-System-Using-Online-Payment-And-Image-Processing-1-320.jpg)

3. EXISTING SYSTEM
Automated Toll booth and theft detection system [6] tells
the mechanism of the toll collection system. An RFID reader
is used to commune with the RFID tag. The reader has the
receiver that exhales radio waves. The tag should answer
back by sending the data. GSM module is used for relating
the entire system through The internet. When the vehicle
pass through the tollgate, the LCD system displays the
information about that vehicle. The Motor Drive organizes
the gate of the system. IR sensor is used to sense the
presence of the vehicle. The alarm indicator shows the
illegitimate crossing of vehicles through the tollgate. Smart
key Access Control Systems [7] have a client – server model
based system with an SQL server handling multiple vehicle
monitoring systems. They have designed a user interface
using the Microsoft .NET Framework.Smartkeyalsooperate
in the 900MHz band but have a small range of 30 meters.
RFID based toll collection system [5] uses active RFID tag
which uses car battery power. The implementation is
divided into the design of two modules- the Vehicle Module
(Active Tag) and the Base Module. The two modules
communicate via RF modem connected to each module.

This technique performs an act that reduces the work. Our
arrangement shows the image processing method which is
applied to the vehicle number plate. The camera will beexist
in the toll gate. When the vehicle pass the toll gate the image
processing take place and the image of the numberplate will
be captured.

In other hand the user should be registered with all the
details in the registration application. The required user
details will be in the database along with the number plate
details. The captured number will be compared with the
number in the database. If the number matches then the
amount points will be checked anddeductedandthebalance
amount will be shown.

6. CONCLUSION
The automated toll collection system in highways based on
image processing and online payment, design scheme was
put forward. It can be provided with the convenient
transport for the public and avoid the traffic congestion. It is
of low cost, high security, far communication distance and
high efficiency, etc. This kind of toll collection system can
save valuable time and also can improve technology level of
charge and reduces the manual collection of the tax. This
reduces the delays that often occur on roads. Automatedtoll
collection system is an effective measure to reduce
management costs and fees, at the same time, greatlyreduce
noise and pollutant emission of toll station. In the design of
the proposed Automated toll collection system, real timetoll
collection system have been designed. This system of](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/irjet-v6i41081-190727100605/85/IRJET-Automated-Tollgate-System-Using-Online-Payment-And-Image-Processing-2-320.jpg)
