Network Based Door Lock Utilizing Radio Frequency Identification Card for Multimedia Rooms
CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND A REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Doors are used to separate interior spaces of the house for privacy, convenience, security, and safety reasons. Not only houses but also offices, shops, stores and schools have used doors to secure passages from the exterior for reasons of safety and for climate control. All doors had locks which have numerous uses. Be it general or specialized. Generally, door locks are important for safekeeping [1].
There are lots of different brands of door locks, and a reputable one is crucial for the privacy or security required like Dexter, Skulthai, Schlage, Chubb and Yale, but the researchers envisioned to make a network based door lock utilizing radio frequency identification device. This would be specifically used for the multimedia rooms in St. Paul University Surigao.
Multimedia room is typically used for presentation of reports or class discussion. It uses projector or television, computer and other device for presentation. This room is very helpful especially in class presentations to make it very clear and more understandable. It could help visualize presentations during the delivery of report by combining images, texts, audios and even videos.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) however, is a technology that incorporates the use of electromagnetic or electrostatic coupling in the radio frequency (RF) portion of the electromagnetic spectrum to uniquely identify an object, animal, or person. RFID has been increasingly used in industry as an alternative to the bar code. One of the advantages of RFID is, it does not require direct contact or line-of-sight scanning. An RFID system consists of three components: an antenna, transceiver and a transponder (the tag). The antenna and transceiver were often combined into one which would be the RFID reader. The higher the frequency range, the more expensive the system would be.
