Many enterprises use RFID cards also known as proximity cards functioning with radio requency in order to open safe doors and follow the human circulation in the building. Each card is an inseparable part of computerised security system and includes the datas which are defined in the RFID chip and can be read by card reader.
RFID chip transmits the data when it is closer to the antenna of the card reader and enables defination of the user. RFID cards are programmable, ease to use and quite economical.
