Arduino RFID Door Lock System with LCD Display and Servo Motor

Circuit Documentation

Summary

This circuit is an RFID-based door lock system using an Arduino UNO. The system includes an RFID reader, an LCD display, a servo motor for locking and unlocking, LEDs for status indication, and a buzzer for alerting invalid access. The Arduino UNO controls all components and processes the RFID tags to determine access.

/*
 * Arduino RFID Door Lock
 * Components: RFID-RC522, LCD, Buzzer, Red LED, Blue LED, Green LED,
 * 3x 220 Ohm Resistors, Arduino UNO, Servo Motor
 *
 * This code controls an RFID-based door lock system. When a valid RFID tag
 * is detected, the servo motor unlocks the door, the green LED lights up,
 * and a message is displayed on the LCD. If an invalid tag is detected,
 * the red LED lights up and the buzzer sounds. The blue LED indicates
 * system readiness.
