# DIY RFID security system

> DIY RFID security system

Original author: egalanos (source: https://www.anchor.com.au/blog/2010/12/diy-rfid-security-system/)

## Components

- **Arduino Ethernet Shield** x 1 ([docs](https://docs.arduino.cc/retired/shields/arduino-ethernet-shield-without-poe-module))

## Article

**Project Description**

This project is designed for an office security where IR sensor detects motion in the office, and RFID sensor checks identity of a visitor or stranger.

Using some simple components, author has built a basic [RFID](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-frequency_identification) security system.

**Parts**
