Introduction to RFID Locks
RFID stands for radio frequency identification technology. It is automatic technology that is used for transfer of radio signals and also for the detection of variety of objects such as vehicles, goods and assets. The RFID locks contain RFID reader and magnetic door locks for simpler use. It is used for locking and unlocking operations. The RFID locks enhance the locking operations and improve the hassle free operations. The RFID locks are integrated with the chip technology which is used for the transfer of data and enhancement of the operations. The RFID technology is used for the processing and can be operated with the electronic barcodes. The RFID locking systems involves the integrated circuit for modulating and demodulating. It has an antenna for receiving signals. It is simple electromechanical systems that are made of electromagnet.
