<br/><br/> Manual contact tracing has been a practice to reduce the rapid spread of infected<br/>individuals inside the community during a pandemic. The manual tracing method often<br/>prolongs the tracking time, and aside from its strenuous working progress, safety and<br/>security are issued nowadays. An effective contact tracing requires a fast, safe, and reliable<br/>processing system. The researchers utilized Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) to<br/>facilitate the fast and effective transition of information gathering. The idea of RFID opens<br/>a solution to simplify the method of contact tracing with the application of internet servers<br/>and programming algorithms. This paper explains the design of a smart contact tracing<br/>device that enables quick, secure, and accurate data entry processing—using Arduino Uno<br/>as controller and Windows Server 2012 as the application allows for tracing innovatively<br/>and systematically. The hardware and software design of the contact tracing device is<br/>compiled and integrated with a small structure, recording every entry while providing a<br/>thoughtful response depending on the status of each individual to maintain the safety<br/>protocol inside the establishment. The testing result reveals no significant difference<br/>between the data's functional correctness at (x̄ = 9.68, n=10.00) and the security value at<br/>(x̄ = 4.10, n=5.00) of the moderate security level. A testing correlation result of (r=0.954,<br/>n=10, p=0) shows a positive degree of linearity between the two variables of the prototype.<br/>It is evident in the end that the prototype’s effectiveness relies on the relationship between<br/>the accuracy and security of the system
