Project Overview

Our goal is to make a RFID reader that will allow us to both unlock and lock a door.  RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification, and is a growing technology allowing people to do all sorts of things, such as having access to certain buildings, paying tolls, and even putting them on groceries to allow faster shopping.  In this project we will be using our own Drexel ID cards and will construct an RFID reader to allow us to unlock a door that we will also construct (in small scale).  This technology could lead to a variety of things such as added home security and more.  Weekly updates will be posted so be sure to follow!
