Prototipo de cobro de tarifa para el acceso a anden de paradas de buses con dinero electrónico

Abstract

The project shows a prototype payment for access to e-bus stop platforms with electronic money, adapting to an Electronic Money payment system in which the impulse of new technologies to promote the circulation of electronic money. The system is based on free software and hardware allowing to interact with different platforms such as the gsm network and a storage server its data visualization. Information on the operation of electronic money in Ecuador, creation of accounts, changes and transactions is presented, and describes the Arduino platform and its different modules used in the project. Additionally, NFC and USSD protocol technologies are described, which will be a fundamental part of the Electronic Money collection process. A description of the architecture and operation of the system and its implementation, ie the subsystems that compose it, is elaborated. We present the tests performed to ensure the correct operation of the prototype taking into account the appropriate conditions and use cases of the prototype. The conclusions and recommendations obtained during the development of the project are presented.
