Metal Detector Strip
Metal Detector Strip
(OP)
I am trying to create a Metal Detecor Strip... This would consist of 24 inches wide and around 2 inches long. Preferably Battery operated. This strip would be strong enough to detect a small peice of metal that would be maybe a quarter of an inch by a quarter of an inch.... The first thing that I need to know is if this design is possible based off of what my requirements are..
Or
Would it be less expensive to use RFID technology? I understand how RFID chips work, and those can be farely inexpensive... but I do not know how much the strip would cost?
Any suggestions and advice would be amazing. Thanks!

CLARIFICATION: MY goal is to create a sensor 24" by 2" that would go along a door way, that would detect a small chip (whether the chip is made of metal or an RFID chip)..
Any suggestions and advice would be amazing. Thanks!
