Abstract
The objective of this project was to evaluate the technical, operational, and economic feasibility of using medium-range radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to track transit passengers. The stages of the Effortless Passenger Identification System (EPIS) project consisted of four main tasks including field testing, controlled testing, consumer acceptance, and both operational and economic feasibility.
