MUMBAI, India, July 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611039680 A) filed by Galgotias University on March 30, 2026, for An Automatic Rfid-Based System And Method For Counting And Identifying People Entering Multiple Adjacent Halls.
Inventors include Karthigai Selvi; and Priyanshu.
The application for the patent was published on July 10, 2026, under issue no. 28/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to an automated system and method for counting and identifying individuals entering or exiting multiple adjacent halls using RFID technology. The system employs RFID readers and directionally oriented antennas positioned at hall entrances to detect RFID tags carried by individuals. A middleware processing unit receives read events and applies de-duplication, direction detection, and error filtering algorithms to ensure accurate attendance tracking and occupancy counting. The processed data is stored in a centralized database and displayed in real time through a dashboard interface. The invention provides a scalable, contactless, and reliable solution for attendance management, minimizing manual intervention while addressing challenges such as duplicate reads, direction ambiguity, and signal interference in multi-zone environments.
