Automation of Flow Control of Books in a University Library
Abstract
This paper describes how the use of RFID technologies and automation processes with Arduino was measured to optimize the control and workflow of a university library. The goal of the project is to verify the feasibility of this technology to control the flow of books in a university library. For this, we interviewed the supervisor of a library and used his answers to define the system requirements. It will be implemented as a middleware in order to provide support for the existing system.
