Someone stop me if this already exists, but I’d like to see an index of all the things people do with their nfc and rfid implants. Seems simple enough to make, a living document just like the one that lists compatible door locks. I know we have the project category in the forum but how nice would it be to just see a list of ideas and projects. It could serve as a reference to those looking to learn or as inspiration for those looking for something new to do. l I’m not sure if I’m the best person to get it done but if noone volunteers I’ll do it.
I’d like to see a webpage or just an excel document that breaks down into several categories and other information. A simple title and description could start it off. Categories like project type (like automation, physical security, electronic security, read/write tutorials, novelty, LED, etc) would be good as well as tag type would follow. And most importantly links to project pages, supporting documentation, etc for each entry must be included.
Say for example I want to add access control to my home office or my front door. I open the index and bam there’s already 10 projects with how-to’s that I can reference. Or maybe I want to add an nfc activated ignition to my motorcycle, I could find a how to there. The creativity of this community is endless and we should be cataloging it.
Then there’s also the reason I started looking, I want to know all the different things people do with the ndef on their tags. My own ideas revolve around expanding data capability by writing a URL pointing to my own web services and including parameters on my tag that act as authentication and as inputs to my web server so that my nfc tag does more than open a web page. Any source code I create could be cataloged, as well as any other open source project or blueprints could be cataloged so that the do-it-yourselfers don’t have to reinvent the wheel.
Think of how stackoverflow.com or instructables.com allows people to easily access knowledge. That’s what I want to accomplish here, albeit on a smaller scale.
If this already exists, then great, but if not let me know what you all think!
