I-Campus: Towards The Information Integration For Uitm Cawangan Melaka Implementation Of Smart Campus

Abstract

: Due to the advancement in technology and management's needs on the go, i-CAMPUS is developed for UiTM Cawangan Melaka. The i-CAMPUS has been integrated with information and communication technology (ICT) and the Internet of Things (IoT). One of the emerging technologies in IoT that is still new in Malaysia is beacon technology with smartphone applications to serve information based on the user's contextual information. Information is currently is decentralized and disseminated among people on the campus through email and by publishing on the website. In order to allow effective information delivery, i-CAMPUS is proposed and developed using an agile development life cycle approach. The system used the Flutter environment and phpMyadmin as a database management system. Integrated with beacon and geofence technology, the i-CAMPUS user will receive notification information within the application when the mobile application sensed the signal emitted by the beacon in the form of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Each beacon signal is unique, and the information delivered is specified according to the beacon.  The i-CAMPUS has been evaluated in terms of functionality and usability. The result shows that i-CAMPUS is working well and enables the visitor to retrieve information anywhere at any time. For future work, the navigation function is recommended to be integrated with this application.
