At BootHK in Hong Kong, we are in the process of hacking together our own RFID door lock which checks membership database and logs entry data.
The RFID system we chose is based on the ISO14443C Sony Felica standard, which is also used by the ubiquitous "Octopus" card. The card is used for small purchase and public transportation payments in Hong Kong, and is carried by almost everyone in HKG. It is also a card system widely used in China, India, Singapore, Thailand, Philadelphia, Bagladesh, and Japan. Let me know if anyone is interested in more information about our system. -William Liang BootHK On Fri, Oct 22, 2010 at 7:55 AM, Jesse L.
