Abstract: In recent times there is sudden increase in cases of child kidnapping, missing child, and child harassment. It is observed that children’s security in school buses and outside school premises is questionable. This proposed system tries to ensure best possible safety of children using smart features which are additions in existing tracking system for better security. The proposed system consists of school bus unit, school unit and android application. The School-Bus Unitwill note presence of child in bus using RFID. GPS module attached to this unit will track location and bus speed constantly. Alcohol sensor and tampering switch in this unit provide secured transport to child. Cloud connectivity and live video streaming facility is provided by Raspberry pi unit which act as slave controller to AVR in bus unit. The School Unit identifies the child in school using RFID scan and update child location on server using WIFI module. The Android Application is an user interface for getting the information of the child and the exact location of the bus.
