The main idea of this paper is to integrate RFID technology and WSN to build an intelligent & secured RFID credit card system. Two scenarios of integration have been implemented. In the first one, we not extended the read range of the RFID system by adding wireless facility to RFID readers. Each RFID reader is equipped with a wireless module which can transmit data to and from the reader. RFID reader acts as sensor node: it reads the identification of an object and sends it to the host application via an ad-hoc network. The second scenario of integration provides RFID readers with sensing ability. Several motion sensors are installed near each reader to detect the presence of a tagged object and to command the reader activity.
