Use a RS522 reader connected to the GPIOs of the Raspberry Pi #2

Closed jlebunetel closed 6 years ago

jlebunetel commented 6 years ago

Use the chip RS522 (with the Velleman VMA405 module for instance) to read RFID tags directly with the Raspberry Pi without using an Arduino Board.

SPI interface

This chip uses the SPI interface. You need to activate it through the Raspberry Pi configuration interface :

$ sudo raspi-config

Python script

This chip can be used with the pi-rc522 library.

Install it with :

$ sudo pip3 install pi-rc522

Then, use it in a Python script :

from pirc522 import RFID
import time

rc522 = RFID()

while True:
  rc522.wait_for_tag()
  (error, tag_type) = rc522.request()
  if not error:
    (error, uid) = rc522.anticoll()
    if not error:
      print("UID: " + str(uid))
      time.sleep(1)
