hello everyone, thank u for those who replied to my previous topic.
im thinking of just changing our reader into RFID since I've tested the reader and it doesn't work.
im just gonna ask if this concept would be feasible in Arduino. theres like a card there right? we're thinking that to make this project Innovative well add the gps-sms tracker. so like this is how itll work.
the card has like the gps and gsm module attached to it for tracking the loc. then if u tap the card onto the rfid reader, it'll trigger the gsm module to send the location tracked by the gps module.
do u think its feasible? cause when i asked pur teacher he said something like u'll need to use two varied codes, idk thats why im here to confirm
im sorry for asking too much, ill appreciate the replies again thank u so much☺️
Probably more accessible for you - as there are well-documented and supported ready-made Arduino RFID kits.
I would strongly recommend that you do go for one of the documented & supported kits from a reputable supplier like Sparkfun or Adafruit - not something unknown & unsupported from AliExpress or whatever.
Although it might be cheaper, as you've already seen, it can waste an awful lot of your time.
Sure, it's feasible to add GPS and GSM - loads of Arduino projects have that.
ok thanks, i just need to clarify something cause im confused, sorry, cause were only gr10 students trying innovative things:sob:
i mean like there would be two different arduino used? one for the rfid reader and one for the card? cause like the gps gsm is attached to the card and those will need another code to work right? and another for the rfid reader?
so the setup would be two different codings, how r we supposed to make the rfid trigger the gsm module to send the sms if not both (gsm-gps) and (rfid reader) aren't on the same connection
sorry for too much questions:sob:and thank u for the replies
what i mean by the gsm gps is that these modules are attached in a card meaning they're connected to a different arduino.
and then another for the rfid reader, cause what they wanted us to is to add something new since projects like this already exists. so we came up to add the gps sms thing, and they agreed to it so...
the thing is that the rfid and gsm-gps module wouldnt be on a single connection, and the problem is how to make the rfid module communicate with the module on the rfid card(gsm-gps) by means of wireless thingy
The RFID reader (blue) is connected to the Arduino, and the GSM/GPS module (red) is also connected to the Arduino.
You present the RFID cards to the RFID reader for reading.
You've not actually said what the purpose of your project is - what will it do?
The first step in any project is to have a specification - that describes what you want to achieve.
From that you can think about what parts you will need to achieve that goal.
So, think about:
What is the purpose of your project - what will it do?
ah thanks for the questions, i dont think I answered it specifically
we want to create an attendance system which monitors the attendance ofc, however we added the gps sms to add a new feature
the rfid card, u tap it right, then thats makes the lets say a student be present on their class. but in that card we like to attach a gsm gps module, connected to an Arduino ofc but
from its name, itll serve as the reader. itll read the rfid card, its connection is different from the card.
cause u alwas bring the rfid card with u, then the purpose of the gps gsm attached to it isa to track whwrever location u are, then swnds it to a mobile phone
as I've stated earlier, its connected to the rfid card and tracks (gps module) then sends (gsm module) the location of the rfid card carrier
the Arduino module is where ull connect the wirings
i hope i explained it clearly😭 thwnks for replying
