Inspiration

To speed up the check in process and to reduce the amount of time the nurses have to spend on it.

What it does

The phone will scan the Rfid tag, which redirects them to a webpage to be checked in. If they are a new user, they would have to create an account to contains their information. If they are a pre-existing user, they would sign in, select their reason of visit and receive a queue number. The staff can then redirect the patients to their required locations.

How we built it

We made a webpage with the display with Javascript and HTML. We then created the database with mongodb. To send the data from the database to the Arduino to display the queue number, we used socket.io to input the data into Arduino, which can take the data to display it.

Challenges we ran into

Coding errors. In all forms, printing when not required, data not displaying, Serial port overload

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Creating a working website

What we learned

How to create a webpage and how to send data from website to Arduino.
