Project Idea 3.0 : RFID Profile Scanner

A took the RFID kit home from a previous lesson, but failed to find a good purpose for it that did not seem too obvious.

Now I have come up with an idea that will allow me to use two project ideas in one. Namely combining the wall light sensor with the RFID scanner.

Imagine a house where each and every door opening has a RFID antenna. Whenever a person walks through a door the person gets scanned to see if he has any RFID chip on him.

These chips can be carried and implemented in numerous ways,

- Clothing
- Card
- ID Tag
- Implemented under the skin (extreme solution)
- Rings, Watch etc.

As soon as the RFID profile has been read from the chip the light in the room will be adjusted to the users preferences. Obviously you do not always want the light to be the same all the day if you are in the room. Here is where the Wall Light Sensor comes in places from Project Idea 1.0

So I want to combine the two to create one effective and energy efficient why of controlling the lights in your rooms.



Every door opening could have a metallic strip which is the RFID antenna. In the above illustration the metallic strip has been made very visible for illustrational purposes, but this strip can easily be hidden in the door opening.
