A Hybrid Travel and Parking Ticket Pass for the United Arab Emirates Transport Services

The transportation and parking systems field has been rapidly evolving in recent times. However, in the United Arab Emirates, the state of transportation and parking systems still has a long way to go. Some areas still use traditional paper ticketing systems that require physical cash, which is not optimal in today's digital age. Other systems, such as those that require payment through messaging services, are not convenient for most users as they lack the option of using different payment methods. In addition, some systems do not support foreign credit cards, while others do not allow wallet sharing with family members. To address these issues, a project was undertaken to design and develop a website-based application for integrating travel and parking ticket systems in the UAE using RFID. The team used HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build the website and integrated the RFID system using a Raspberry Pi. The result obtained for the project is a complete website that provides all traveling services in one platform while providing a secure user experience, where users can easily share their wallet with family members. The benefits of this system include increased automation, greater convenience, and efficiency, as well as the ability to access all services in one platform with a secure system protected by blockchain technology.
