jcarmody Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 My favorite microcontroller company sells a serial RFID reader here for $40US, and a USB version here. I've been toying with the idea of buying one myself. The rest of the program will be rather straightforward once you have something to read the card. You'll need something to actuate the lock, too.

Well my actual problem is I don't quite understand how to build up the diagram from scratch. Hope you could help me up with the basic structure.Thanks alot Quote Link to comment

You'll need to provide more information about the hardware you're going to use. Also, give some indication of what you've already done and what specific problems you're having. For now, this should help you get started (it's all I could come up with based on the information I have). Quote Link to comment
