Abstract :
- In this pandemic, it is common knowledge for
every establishment, institution, and community that
contact tracing plays a crucial role in containing the
COVID 19 virus. This
study utilized experimental methods to identify the
prototype’s data accuracy, precision, and effectiveness
compared to manual or digital contact tracing. The
experiment exhibits a quick detection capability of RFID
card users in varying distances and accurately reflects
and records the users’ information thatis only within the
booth. However, upon the temperature check, the
scanned values were inaccurate compared to a
commercial temperature scanner but werealmost precise
in terms of its consecutive temperature values. The
ability of the device to determine the rights to enter to the
premises based on the temperature also requires
development particularly the Arduino device itself since
the inconsistency of the program was assumed to be due
to maxing out the storage capacity for programming
codes. The findings of the study indicated that the
integration of the RFID technology to contact tracing
had the potential to be a candidate of a new contacttracing
method viable to the institution and alike.
