Schematics

RFID Access Controller

This is a scematic of main system. This office consisted of an external door and an internal door. S1 and S2 are two reed swtiches installed with extermal door so that it informs access controller to open internal door once RFID access is granted.
This schematic has covers failure plan where for any issues with system, the guard can insert special fuse F1 and enable the manual buttons S3 and S4 to deactivate the lock.

Code

RFID Access Controller

C/C++
This code is built to read the RFID/NFC card and then see if the visitor is authorised or no. For an authorised person, it will activate a relay that will deactivate the lock to open the door.
