Question on Bluetooth Smart Card Readers #108

I see that there are some wireless / bluetooth smart card readers in the market like: ACR1255U-J1 Feitian bR500 that claim to be PC/SC and CCID-compliant.

Has any non-usb smart card reader been tested with the CCID driver? If not, how would you suppose they achieve this functionality? I guess using something like serial over bluetooth? Lastly if they do operate with serial over bluetooth do you believe any of them would work with ccid_serial access enabled with --enable-twinserial?

The CCID protocol is for USB only.

For a Bluetooth reader you have to provide your own PC/SC driver.
