Abstract -As android is the most widely used in
concession by filling a form using an android application and then scans the QR code embedded into their ID card. The QR code is used to identify each student uniquely. This QR code will contain student’s information that will be stored in the server when the request is sent to it. This approach is adopted because an application would allow students to register and apply for concession anytime and the barcode will help to authenticate the student’s identity. Finally when the requests are gathered on the server, the student’s details are verified with the student database to check whether the details are correct or not. These details would help to verify whether the student is a regular one and what was the last time he applied for railway concession. And lastly the student’s concession form is printed by the server.
the field of mobile computing, an android application would allow users to register and apply for Railway concession at anytime as per their convenience. Thus the application would be easily available as most of the students in today’s world use android phones and also android applications are compatible with other platforms. QR code is used to identify each student uniquely. This QR code will contain some personal information of the student that is unique to him.

1. INTRODUCTION QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response Code) is the trademark for a type of matrix barcode (or twodimensional barcode) first designed for the automotive industry in Japan. A barcode is a machine-readable optical label that contains information about the item to which it is attached. A QR code uses encoding modes to efficiently store data.
Our basic idea is to design an application to implement our concept. How is this actually possible, is explained with details in this paper.
2. LITERATURE SURVEY
The QR code system became popular outside the automotive industry due to its fast readability and greater storage capacity compared to standard barcodes. Applications include product tracking, item identification, time tracking, document management, and general marketing.
2.1 Existing System As our system is based on using QR code detection, we researched on ‘What is QR code and how it has been implemented in different ways ? ’This project focuses on reducing the human effort required in the process of railway concession. In our system we are trying to limit the human resource required in the entire process and make it as simple as possible. For identifying a student from his ID two methods can be used:
A QR code consists of black squares arranged in a square grid on a white background, which can be read by an imaging device such as a camera, and processed using Reed–Solomon error correction until the image can be appropriately interpreted. The required data are then extracted from patterns that are present in both horizontal and vertical components of the image.
The process of Railway Concession though convenient and useful for college students is time-consuming and includes paperwork. However in today’s smart world, there is a need to reduce this manual work. This system accepts and stores request for railway concession from college students. The student registers for the
