DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN AUTOMATED VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM
ABSTRACT
A vehicle is a mobile machine that transports passengers or cargo. Automated vehicle identification system, is software that will assist the security men in recognizing an official car in Federal Polytechnic Nekede. This software is an expert system will be program with the knowledge of someone that is charge of assigning official car to staff in the institution. The security men, especially the new posted one, cannot identify an official car in the institution due to ignorant and lack of proper training of security personnel, this lead to the development of an automated vehicle identifying system for easy recognizing and identifying of an official car in the institution. The methodology adopted this research work is structured system analysis and design method and this software is being programmed with visual basic.net. a complete implementation of this automated vehicle identifying system for official car will not only recognized an official car but will also store details of an official car in the institution.
CHAPTER ONE
Introduction
1.1 Background Of The Study
A vehicle is a mobile machine that transports passengers or cargo. Most often, vehicles are manufactured, such as wagons, bicycles, Motor vehicles − motorcycles, cars, trucks, buses, trains, watercraft − ships, boats, spacecraft and aircraft. Land vehicles are classified broadly by what is used to apply steering and drive forces against the ground: wheeled, tracked, and railed. Vehicles are often required to be registered. Registration may be for purely legal reasons, for insurance reasons or to help law enforcement recover stolen vehicles. On motor vehicles, registration often takes the form of a vehicle registration plate, which makes it easy to identify a vehicle. In Nigeria, trucks and buses have their license plate numbers repeated in large black letters on the back. On aircraft, a similar system is used where a tail number is painted on various surfaces. Like motor vehicles and aircraft, watercraft also have registration numbers in most jurisdictions, however the vessel name is still the primary means of identification as has been the case since ancient times. For this reason, duplicate registration names are generally rejected. Registration may be conditional on the vehicle being approved for use on public highways, as in the case of Nigeria. Many Nigeria states also have requirements for vehicles operating on public highways.
This automated vehicle identification system, is software that will assist the security men recognized an official in Federal Polytechnic Nekede. This software is an expert system will be program with the knowledge of someone that is charge of assigning official car to staff in the institution. The software still has a database that will store new information of an official car. After programming, once the user − security men key in the plate number of any car entering the school, the system will be able to identified if the car it is an official car or not.
1.2 Statement Of The Problem
The problem facing some security men and some staff in Federal Polytechnic Nekede is to identify an official car in the school. The security men, especially the new posted one, cannot identify an official car in the institution. These are the more reasons, why I embarked on this research:
- Lack of training to security men, the management suppose to trained any new recruit security man.
- Ignorant of staff and security men to identify an official car.
- Poor management, The management are too poor to incorporate some normal routine check
1.3 Objective Of The Study
The objective of this project work is to develop an automated vehicle identification system of official car in Federal Polytechnic Nekede that will achieve the following:
- Assist the security men to identify an official car,
- Indirectly coerce some person in the management to be computer literate.
- Provide them reliable and easy means on official car identification.
- Register and management all official car in the school.
1.4 Scope Of The Study
The major aim of the project is to design a system that will have all information about any official car in the institution stored and retrieve this information for the purpose of identification. It focuses on the registration, retrieval and management of information of an official car in the institution.
1.5 Significance Of The Study
The significance of this project work, an automated identification system of official car in Federal Polytechnic Nekede is;
- Assist security and some staff to identify official car in the institution.
- Stores information of any official car in the institution.
- Management of an official car
- Provide a complete details of an official car.
1.6 Limitation Of The Study
During this research work, there were lots of limitations and they include:
- Lack of enough information for the design of a new system, due to poor understanding of the effects of the uses of computer system.
- Error in data collected for the analysis and design of the new system.
- Distortion due to human factors such as stress, fatigue, sickness and weakness of the body within the period of this project work.
- Lack of enough funds.
1.7 Contribution To ICT
The contribution of this software to Information and Communication Technology is implementing an expert system software in the security system that will help in identifying an official car automatically. This act will boost ICT in the school and It will also increase the rate of computer literate in the society.

Can the material for “A Deconstructive Reading of Wole Soyinka’s Death and the King’s Horseman and the Road” be used as a guide for English Language Project?
Yes it can be used — African literary elites have responded to the call by Africans to free the continent from all forms of colonial and slave mentality. While others have responded overtly, Soyinka does so covertly. As a result, over time, critical commentaries on his works have been on the mythical presentation of the Yoruba world as a microcosm of the entire African continent and the post-colonial experience. While these commentaries cannot be totally erased, this research exposes the pitfalls, the blind spots and the aporias that characterize most African writings. Consequently, this research discusses Soyinka’s two plays; Death and the King’s Horseman and The Road as Soyinka’s unconscious hatred for the West. Clearly, African writers in an attempt to counter Western perception of Africa …

Can the material for “Appraisal of the Role of Regulatory Bodies in the Nigerian Insurance Industry” be used as a guide for Insurance Project?
Yes it can be used — Business is too important to be left to “Business-men” to run and operate as they see fit. Moreso, if that “business” is that of insurance. The average Nigerian might not know much about insurance but he or she knows that insurance companies “don’t pay claims” In other words, the insurance industry has a bad image. This was the reason behind the federal governments creation of different insurance regulatory bodies. To prevent “quacks from doing insurance business and to protect the insuring public, insurance laws and regulatory bodies have been created to further protect the insuring public. The question now is, who are these regulatory bodies? How do they operate and how effective are they in performing their duties? This project in …
Can the material for “Studies on the Co-Infectivity of HIV and Atypical Mycobacteria” be used as a guide for Microbiology Project?
Yes it can be used — The increasing global incidence of tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) has been attributed to immunosuppresion due to the Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic. The paucity of information on the contribution of NTM to mycobacterial infections in Africa including Nigeria has however been closely associated with limited laboratory culture for its isolation and identification. This study investigated the co-infectivity of HIV and Atypical Mycobacteria in Nsukka L.G.A. Two hundred cases (100 HIV negative: 56 males and 44 females and 100 HIV positive- 39 males and 61 females), between the ages of 15 and 71 years with mean age of 37.5 years participated in the research. HIV antibodies were screened using two HIV test kits: the Determine (Abbot Co Ltd, Japan) for preliminary …
