How IoT based RFID Attendance System Works?

 3 weeks ago

The ESP32 Wi-Fi Module will collect the RFID CARD/keychain UID  from the multiple users and sends it over
the internet to a website. The Enrollment of RFID CARD is done on the server using any MF-RC522 RFID
Module that is available on the market. The verification of the Card/keychain will be done on the webserver,
while Card UID is transmitted over the WiFi.

In fact, from device section administrators can add a new device, update, and remove too. To add a new
device you need to enter the device name and its depart. Additionally, you can update the device token
from the device UID section.

View user log

From the User Log menu, you can navigate to all user log data. You can also see their arrival and departure
times. It also filters your logs to filter user, date, arrival time, timeout, and various sections. So you can export
that data to Excel.

Here we are listing all the major required software components for this project to develop the user interface.

1. Embedded C: All the hardware interface coding has been done in embedded C Language.

2. PHP: All the Logics and web interface is written in PHP Language.

3. MYSQL: For database, MYSQL Database is used.

4. Apache 2: To run the web interface over the Apache 2 server.

5. Javascript and CSS: To Style web Interface with animation and validate the form.

Network Topology: IoT Based RFID Attendance

System using ESP32
This is a simple network topology designed to run this project through a local network. Project devices and
computer servers are connected to the same network via Wi-Fi.

Now its time to interface all the components together to build the project.

How to run a server for this project?

In fact, we can use this PHP web application on hosting servers as well. However, you need a public IP from
your broadband connection to send data to the hosting server.

Anyway, we are using the XAMPP server. It can be used on both Windows and Linux. Generally, Ubuntu
users can use LAMP which is better than XAMPP. But, I am using Windows so I am going to use the XAMPP
server. So you can download XAMPP server from this link

Deploying RFID Attendance Web App

Start your Mysql and Apache from XAMPP Control Panel.

Download the PHP web app and the Arduino IDE Program code.

Extract the file.

Copy the rfidattendance folder (Main Project folder).

Paste the folder in C:\>xampp/htdocs/ folder.

Now let’s connect the database to the RFID attendance system.

Open the browser and go to the URL “http://localhost/phpmyadmin/”

Then click on the database tab.

Create a database name “rfidattendance” and then click on the import tab.

Click on the browse file and then choose the “rfidattendance.sql” file located inside the rfidattendance
folder.

Click on Go.

After creating a database, open a browser and go to the URL “http://localhost/rfidattenddance/”. Now, the
admin login panel will be displayed.

Admin Panel Login System

Enter the admin email and password to enter the system.

The default admin credentials is: email= admin@gmail.com, and password= 123.

Setting Up Arduino IDE for ESP32

We need to add the esp32 board to our Arduino IDE. Open up your IDE then go to “File -> Preferences” or
simply hit “Ctrl + comma”.

Paste https://dl.espressif.com/dl/package_esp32_index.json in additional board manager URLs. 

Go to “Tools -> Board -> Boards Manager” search and install ESP32.

Selecting Port and Board

Go to Tools -> Port and select the COM Port of your ESP32. If you are not sure what port your ESP32 is
plugged in, go to Device Manager -> Ports (COM & LPT).

Now select Your ESP32 Board by clicking Tools -> Board. Scroll down until you find it.

Library Files for IoT Based RFID Attendance System

You have to install the following library files to your Arduino IDE Libraries folder:

RFID Library

Adafruit GFX

Adafruit SSD1306

Program/Sketch Code
The source code for the Portable IoT Based RFID Attendance System using ESP32 is here. In this source
code, you need to do some modifications like your WiFi Network credentials, Device token from the
website, and PC IP Address.

Include ESP32, RFID, Adafruit GFX, and Adafruit SSD1306 Library header files.

#include <WiFi.h>
#include <HTTPClient.h>
#include <time.h>
//RFID-----------------------------
#include <SPI.h>
#include <MFRC522.h>
//OLED-----------------------------
#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_GFX.h>
#include <Adafruit_SSD1306.h>

Defining Pin of all the components that are interfaced to ESP32 board.

#define SS_PIN 4 // SCK-GPIO 18, MOSI-GPIO 17, MISO-GPIO 16, Vcc-3.3v, GND -GND,
#define RST_PIN 5
// Declaration for SSD1306 display connected using software I2C pins are(22 SCL, 21 SDA)
#define SCREEN_WIDTH 128 // OLED display width, in pixels
#define SCREEN_HEIGHT 64 // OLED display height, in pixels
#define OLED_RESET 0 // Reset pin # (or -1 if sharing Arduino reset pin)
Adafruit_SSD1306 display(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT, &Wire, OLED_RESET);

Create MFRC522 instance.

MFRC522 mfrc522(SS_PIN, RST_PIN);

Set these to your desired credentials. Your WiFi SSID Name, Password, and Device Token.

const char *ssid = "SSID";

const char *password = "Password";
const char* device_token = "Device Token";

Replace “x” your timezone.

int timezone = x * 3600;

int time_dst = 0;

Your computer IP or the server domain.

String URL = "http://YourComputerIP/rfidattendance/getdata.php";

Initiate SPI bus and MFRC522 card

SPI.begin();
mfrc522.PCD_Init();

check if there’s a connection to Wi-Fi or not.

if(!WiFi.isConnected())

Retry to connect to Wi-Fi

connectToWiFi();

look for new card

if ( ! mfrc522.PICC_IsNewCardPresent()) {

go to start of loop if there is no card present

if ( ! mfrc522.PICC_IsNewCardPresent()) {
return;

Select one of the cards. If read card serial(0) returns 1, the UID struct contains the ID of the read card.

if ( ! mfrc522.PICC_ReadCardSerial()) {
return;

Send the Card UID to the website.

void SendCardID( String Card_uid ){

Serial.println("Sending the Card ID");
if(WiFi.isConnected()){
HTTPClient http; //Declare object of class HTTPClient
//GET Data
getData = "?card_uid=" + String(Card_uid) + "&device_token=" + String(device_token); // Add
the Card ID to the GET array in order to send it
//GET methode
Link = URL + getData;
http.begin(Link); //initiate HTTP request //Specify content-type header

int httpCode = http.GET(); //Send the request

String payload = http.getString(); //Get the response payload

// Serial.println(Link); //Print HTTP return code

Serial.println(httpCode); //Print HTTP return code
Serial.println(Card_uid); //Print Card ID
Serial.println(payload); //Print request response payload

if (httpCode == 200) {
if (payload.substring(0, 5) == "login") {
String user_name = payload.substring(5);
// Serial.println(user_name);

}
else if (payload.substring(0, 6) == "logout") {
String user_name = payload.substring(6);
// Serial.println(user_name);

}
else if (payload == "succesful") {

}
else if (payload == "available") {

}
delay(100);
http.end(); //Close connection
}
}
}

connect to the WiFi

void connectToWiFi(){
WiFi.mode(WIFI_OFF); //Prevents reconnection issue (taking too long to connect)
delay(1000);
WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
Serial.print("Connecting to ");
Serial.println(ssid);
WiFi.begin(ssid, password);

while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) {

delay(500);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println("");
Serial.println("Connected");

Serial.print("IP address: ");

Serial.println(WiFi.localIP()); //IP address assigned to your ESP

delay(1000);
}

Print the IP address assigned to your ESP32

Serial.print("IP address: ");

Serial.println(WiFi.localIP());

Great work! But can we use MQTT protocol instead of http in this project. If yes then can you please explain
in brief as how to use it.

Hi Alsan,

After successfully getting a WEMOS d1 mini running with NodeMCU_RFIDv2.0.INO with your help.
I now want to run my ESP32-WROOM with ESP32_RFID.INO.

I see in serial port:

Connecting to Ziggo6480948
…..
Connected
IP address: 192.168.178.117
Thu Jan 1 02:00:07 1970
Sat May 8 02:17:22 2021
Sat May 8 02:17:23 2021
Sat May 8 02:17:24 2021
Sat May 8 02:17:25 2021
Sat May 8 02:17:26 2021

And date and time keeps running ….

I have no response when I hold a card in front of the RFID RC522 Module.

I use same IP adres as with NodeMCU_RFIDv2.0.INO so connection doesn’t seems the problem.

Do you have any idea why that is?
