Hi, I want to write my PC application able to work with RFID devices and i'm looking for an SDK able to: 1. Write RFID card registers 2. Compatible with MIFARE CLASSIC/ULTRALIGHT, FELICA, DESFIRE 3. Compatible with windows8 and linux 4. Good support with API and documentation 5. Compatible with open stacks (for example with openNFC) Point 5 is not strictly necessary but preferable. Any suggestion? Thanks

I wonder if there is any kind of device out there that's available for anybody that could read that smart chip. I'm just curious what is encoded in there and have nothing nefarious on my mind. I though some NFC phone app could do that, but I am not sure.

I have a built in reader on my notebook and never got the tools to work. But I didn't spend a lot of time on it. OpenNFC has a SDK, so I don't understand your question.

I have a built in reader on my noteb=ook=20 I need a reader/WRITER different from notebook, mobile phones or similar: f= or example something like this http://www.identive-group.com/products-and-solutions/identification-product= s/mobility-solutions/mobile-readers/scl3711-contactless-usb-smart-card-read= er But i'm not sure if this device is able to satisfy all points above. Have you any suggestion?

You probably need to go onto a different usenet group or find a suitable forum. This is really nitty gritty stuff. I'm not even sure how much talk their will be in the open since people make money off such technology. Blackberry has this bluetooth badge holder than feeds your smartcard to their phone. So you wear your stinkin' badge around your neck and it communicates to all the paired devices that need the secondary authentication. Your phone is also one step in physical access to facilities via NFC. The problem I see with any of these devices is you need to check them regularly, kind of like a license server, and from different places in the executable code. A common way to get past dongles in the dark ages was to step through the code and watch where it jumps when the port is read, then change the code in assembler. That was how dedongled programs were distributed. There is a public version of what is known loosely as Air Force linux. Technically known as lightweight portable security. It works with usb smartcard readers. They may be documents available regarding the coding. http://spi.dod.mil/LPS-Public_for_DoD.htm In government speak, you are trying to write the CAC middleware. The public version does have the CAC provision, so the code might be acquired via a FOIA request.
