Code

RFID based attendance system

C/C++
Use:
1) Place the RFID tag on the EM18 module.
2) read the LCD to check if the Tag is correct.
3) When LCD displays your name, you are done.
Applications:
1)Passive RFID tags have a distance limit of nearly 10 cm.
2)Active RFID tags have much larger range but they need an external power supply.
3) Its applications are :
a) can be used in supermarkets for shopping which will eliminate counters and time wasted there.
b) Can be used in toll gates for instant payment and save us some time.
c) Can be used in security systems.
Note: However, one major issue is that RFID tags are easy to hack and may be that's why these are not used in security systems. So maybe in future with more advanced RFID tags this would be possible.
