This project is focusing on the implementation of the RFID system in the automation industries or more specifically, on a car security ignition switch system. The system takes inputs from the user unique identification card and transfer the data embedded in it to the RF transmitter. It communicates through an IDR-232 RFID reader which sends signals to PIC16F877A microcontroller to remotely control each data that has been read and send it into PIC16F876A microcontroller which is responsible for the radio frequency transmitter for further data transmission. There are some add up component that can help the system to be applicable with the real life application such as liquid crystal display screen and ignition switch indicator. For this project, C programming language is used to write commands which are uploaded to the PIC chip through a boot loader. The software that has been choose for developing the command language for the system is MPLAB IDE v8.43 originate from Microchip software product. There is an experiment that has been constructed to determine the detection range of the RFID reader which can help for the future design when the system is being installed in car. The benefits from this project completion are it can increase the security level of cars, reducing the index of car stolen case and make the use of high level car security system is affordable for many people.
