Yes, I know, this isn’t a barcode or QR code reader. But when researching the topic, I found this handy little RFID reader kit available at Adafruit. What I like about this one, compared to a whole host of other versions, is the built-in relay and the fact that it’s a complete kit with no code required.
The kit includes the RFID Wiz board, 13.56MHz Tag Reader board, 12 V 2A power supply, 6-pin JST-XH cable, 2-pin JST-XH cable, RFID key fob, RFID card, 5 × RFID stickers, and a QR code that directs to the Adafruit Learning System guide. Simply train the board with the included RFID cards and start making!
