Child Monitoring and Tracking: A Smart Phone Based Platform for Parents

Abstract

Child tracking system is a multi-purpose application that will track the child’s location and will also provide a interaction portal for parents and institution where they can share information regarding circular, co-curricular and extra circular activities of the child such as academic progress, school trips, parent teacher meetings etc. The system will be tracking the driver location to monitor the routes of the school buses. The aim of the project is to create a system that will remotely allow the parents to keep track of their kid’s location when they are leaving and arriving at the school. On the other hand, interaction portal will help parents and institution to be able to better communicate regarding the progress and activities of children so that parents are able to monitor all academic and extra-curricular activities of children as well. This monitoring forum will prevent misperception and academic dishonesty from children.
