CANTEEN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING RFID TECHNOLOGY BASED ON CLOUD COMPUTING

We are currently in the midst of a technological and computing revolution that will drastically change our lives and potentially redefine what it means to be human. Automation in many fields has replaced the old school pen and paper and at the same time proved to be more efficient, correct and less cumbersome making our life much easier. This automation process when applied on an integral pa rt of the working people i.e. “canteen” helps reduce the service time, eliminates queues, there is no burden to provide the exact change to the staff for the order; to name a few benefits on the canteen's customer side and on the other hand it provides a r eliable way of storing records and keeping the money safe as mostly the payments are made online via virtual money; benefits for the canteen owner. We achieve this automation process by using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) card, an RFID card reader, a tablet and hosting the application on cloud.
