KIDS DESIGN AWARD 2007 School attendance and leaving notification service

This service enables you to quickly and accurately determine your child's status and route to and from school, which is linked to child safety and wellbeing measures. To meet the needs of schools and guardians who want to identify a child's status and route to and from school accurately and promptly, we have configured in cooperation with educators a highly reliable system that does not limit the free movements of the child, and which allocates contact time between children and teachers to reduce bureaucracy using active RFID tags.

Examination Committee Evaluation Comments

Information on a child going to or from school is sent in real time to the parent's mobile phone or PC using RFID tag reactions when passing through the school gates. Communications between parents, children, and the school using IT technology is the future from the viewpoint of notifying conditions promptly in an emergency without there being a strong awareness of their being used.
