Objective:
- Design an RFID-based student tracking system for Washington-Lee High School
Requirements:
- Every student must have a tag
- Classroom attendance can be efficiently taken
- Real-time student locations
- Floor #
- Hall #
- Room #
Implementation costs:
- tags for every student (plain, card, implants)
- transponders (RFID readers)
- computer system?
- cabling?
Floor plans:
- You should verify your RFID readers' range and measure the size of the hallway to determine the appropriate locations of RFID readers.
- You should download the following floor plans and clearly mark where you would place RFID readers:
Deliverable:
- Introduction
- Design description
- # of tags, what kind of tags, make, model, cost, etc.
- # of readers, their locations, make, model, cost, etc.
- Be sure to include the MARKED floor plans with locations of readers
- any other information regarding the design
- Implementation costs:
- Spreadsheet / table outlining total cost of system
- System Evaluation / Conclusion
- Advantages of your system
- Disadvantages of your system
- Social and ethical concerns
Presentation:
- Once you have completed the paper deliverable, you should begin working on a presentation that outlines your system's design.
- The presentation should be 5-6 minutes long
- After each presentation, there will be a Question & Answer period of 2-3 minutes
BEST DESIGN AWARD:
- The best design will be determined using three criteria:
- Overall cost of implementation, advantages, and disadvantages of the system
- Design document
- Presentation
