Parallax RFID Reader

RFID’s (pronounced arphids) are small electronic devices that when put near a specialized electrical field, generate a structured pulse of energy that contains a unique number.

 

You can use this number to validate an objects identity and perform many interesting functions. One supermegacool function that has been floating around the web in the past year has been using an embedded RFID ampoule to unlock a deadbolt on a door.
