Long Range RFID Project

Yes, there is no problem with them. My problem is about which devices is suitable for using with Arduino. I'm waiting answer to this question.

For example can you show one of suitable rfid reader and tag whose range between 3-4 meters.

What have you found in your google searches so far?

My problem is about which devices is suitable for using with Arduino.

You will have to say what device first before anyone can say if it will work with an Arduino.
There are many different types of reader.

Also 870-950 MHz is not the only frequency you can get active RFID tags, maybe some of the others might be cheaper.

For example this one. http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/227232953/RFID_long_range_reader.html?s=p
It meets my needs. Can I use with Arduino Mega?

I want to buy Arduino Mega. Yes, 900mhz may be expensive but I said at start, I am newbie. :frowning:

The link says:-

(3)RS232/TCP/IP ports

So yes using an RS232 to TTL converter it will work with an arduino.

It also says it has:-

3.Wiegand26/34

So that is another way to get an arduino to read it. That can be done with only two transistors to interface it.

It means that if there is a ttl, it can be used with Arduino. Am I right?

Usually. Unless the current requirements are too high.

What does that have to do with RFID?

I just want to make car parking system. So it has to read the tag 3-4 meters away from barrier.

I got that from the first post. What I don't get is what the 433 MHz RF Transceiver is going to be doing.

Someone said me; "RFID reader's mhz is must be high" so I'm searching them. Is there any problem? If you have any idea or advice I'll be happy.

They were wrong.
You can do a car park entry system with an active transponder at any frequency.
That transmitter will allow you to make a transponder ( tag ) but will need one for every car and you need a receiver.

Can anyone advice me active RFID reader which can be used 3-4 meters away reading?
I want to use it with Arduino Uno R3.
I need hep. SOS.

Can anyone advice me active RFID reader which can be used 3-4 meters away reading

assuming you have googled
active rfid tags

What do you mean by advise you?
Do you want a list of tags and readers you can use?

Yes, googled and learned how it works but couldn't find products which are suitable for Arduino usage.
If you say; "You can buy this active RFID reader and tags..", I'll google them and search similar ones.

The only readers that are not sutiable for an arduino are those with USB connections or fire wire. All the others are.

I'm buying this one with active tags.

Will I have a problem with Arduino?

Hello there...

I'm working on almost same project nowadays... Did you finish this, i'm asking because here is no conclusion also i need help too..

I'd love to hear from you two... I'm working on similar project. Tks.

I would like to implement a stand alone device with features that can also connect via wifi for minimal IOT support.

these people seem to have implemented this idea

but its not clear if their system will allow personalize and removal of their brand. looking to do something similar but with personalization and customization of my own.

Wouldn't mind programming it myself from the ground up. Wondering which reader would do approximately 8.5m? Any ideas would help. Thanks

Hi,
I hope you realize that this is an old thread, 2012 and 2014, the fact that both of the postees are now classed as guests means that they are no longer registered with the forum.
Hence you will be lucky to get a reply from them.

The fact that there was no resolution to the problems, means that no solution was found.

Tom... :slight_smile:
