GitHub: View on GitHub
📘 Introduction
In this project, I have built a simple yet powerful RFID-based system using the ESP8266 NodeMCU microcontroller. The system reads RFID cards using the MFRC522 module and sends the UID data to a web interface over Wi-Fi. It can be used in access control, attendance tracking, or any kind of RFID-based identification system.
🧰 Components Used
-
ESP8266 NodeMCU (ESP-12E)
-
MFRC522 RFID Reader
-
RFID Tags or Cards (13.56 MHz)
-
Jumper Wires
-
USB Cable and Power Source
🌐 Features
-
Web-based interface to view UID logs
-
Automatic Wi-Fi configuration using WiFiManager
-
LittleFS file system support to store configuration and logs
-
Easy-to-understand code structure with comments
-
Arduino IDE compatible
🔧 How It Works
-
On boot, the ESP8266 tries to connect to the last used Wi-Fi.
-
If it fails, it starts as an Access Point for WiFi setup.
-
Once connected, the RFID reader scans for tags and logs the UID to the web interface.
-
You can visit the IP address in a browser to view all authorized or scanned UIDs.
