16. Prototype - Keeping your cards safe using photo interrupter module (Light blocking sensor) and Arduino
This project is a prototype and in this project I will be discussing about how your cards - such as credit cards, debit cards, gift cards - can be kept safe. Take a look at the pictures below to see how this project works. Device is not activated: (So the LED is orange in colour) Device is activated: (So the LED turns green) Device is activated: (LED turns red and buzzer alarm is set off when card is displaced) To see how the hardware is setup and the way this project works, please take a look at the YouTube video posted in the 'Final Look' section of this page.
