IoT-Based RFID System for Automated Inventory Management at Depo Train Surabaya Pasar Turi

Abstract

The development of technology in the field of IOT can help human work, especially in the process of data collection of goods. The manual process of data collection of goods often experiences problems such as human error, insecure data, and low efficiency levels. To overcome this, this research designs an IoT-based goods data collection automation system using RFID. This system consists of ESP32 microcontroller as the control center, RFID for item identification, Google Spreadsheet for real-time data storage, and Telegram as an automatic notification. Equipped with keypad for NIPP input, buzzer as audio indicator, and LCD for information display. The test results showed 100% accuracy of item data collection through a trial of 15 items, with an average Google Spreadsheet data update time of 3.01 seconds and Telegram notifications successfully sent in an average time of 3.08 seconds. This system is expected to improve accuracy, efficiency, and security in data collection of goods, thus supporting the operation of PT KAI facilities warehouse more effectively.
