Reduce Cost of Manufacturing Tokens
As compared to other current implementations such as those in India and the United Kingdom, instead of a RFID tag or token, our proposed solution provides a cheaper alternative as we utilize an ez-link card. The cost of manufacturing an ez-link card is much lower than a RFID tag or token. The cost to manufacture an ez-link card is $10 as compared to the manufacturing cost of a RFID tag or token of $120.
Self-Reliance
With the implementation of our system, the visually impaired can now have better access to public buses and also have a burden lifted off their shoulders. They can now have another option of assistance when boarding the buses instead of having to constantly ask for help nearby. This might help them feel better about themselves seeing that at least they can try to board buses by themselves without having to trouble others.
