Design of an Efficient Authentication and Access Control System Using RFID

Abstract

The goal of this research is to use RFID technology for attendance system that consists of RFID reader and RFID tag as its main parts. It is an embedded system in which Arduino plays the key role. It is further interfaced with Eclipse Oxygen.3a software for maintaining the data in the database. It maintains the attendance in database automatically. Moreover the second module of the system is authorized access control. It is a proficient system that allows instructors to keep record of student attendance data. The whole setup is easy to handle and cost effective.
