Abstract

Nowadays, there is an increasing number of animals being brought into veterinary sanatoriums, resulting in the growth of treated animal database management. For the conventional technique for collecting animal registration and history, most of the information is collected by taking notes together with the use of handwritten animal identification cards. However, this type of data collection cannot meet all of the requirement. Besides, it can cause a problem such as using space for data storage, taking the time for searching the document and an occurrence of human error. This research proposed a design and development of RFID readers according to the low-frequency band with 125 kHz for database management system in a veterinary clinic. The presented system can reduce the error of the information management system in the veterinary clinic and increase the convenience of service which is the purpose of this research. The presented management system focuses on being able to be used in a small veterinary sanatorium and replacing traditional database management. The designed system consists of handheld low-band RFID readers, IC chip of ID-2LA, Visual Basic for displaying information on the computer screen, and SQL databases. The farthest distance at which the designed RFID reader can still read tags with 100% accuracy is 11 centimeters. By combining the proposed RFID with the proposed veterinary clinic database management system, the service errors can be reduced by 0.25% to 0.05% and it can increase the service scarification from 3.24% to 3.5%. The designed applications can store basic information such as animal information and animal owner information including basic immunization history and the treatment history of the animal in the database.
