Hey Im new to this arduino Programming
My project is " Rfid based gate automation "
In my project i have make a server so that any authority can check which all vehicles are inside the area/campus and at what time it entered.My project is like this when a vehicle with valid rfid comes near the gate it reads the value and compares it with the already defined values if it matches then the gate is opened.my problem is that i want to connect it to internet and see which all vehicles have entered.i have an ethernet shield " ENC28J60 ". Someone please help with the coding or atleast show a demo program so that i can modify
Thanks

Maximum range of RFID is just acouple of centimeters/inches, so the drivers of the cars would have to maneuver their cars accurately into the reading range of the RFID reader, to become "detected".
I'd suggest using a case with two marks on the outer side for "coming and "going" and two RFID readers inside.
If a car arrives, the driver has to hold his cars RFID tag against the "coming" patch. if he wants to leave, he holds his cars RFID tag against the "leaving" patch, so it can be read.
Long range RFID can become rather expensive, maybe thousands of USD/EUR for a system which can read RFID tags from a distance of 50cm /25 inches). Max. Range of typical RFID readers is much lower.
Have you researched the RF id devices available and have you found some that are usable for your project? How large is your budget? Who will buy the transponders for the automobiles? Are you also tracking two wheeled vehicles?
