I stumbled across http://blogs.bl0rg.net/netzstaub/archives/000539.html which really interested me, as I am looking to test out some RFID stuff here at our retail company. Being able to leverage the logic and simplicity of Ruby along these lines seems promising. Of course this example deals with a specific RFID reader hardware/firmware type. In this case a ID ISC.PR100 USB model. Does anyone know if there are other projects being worked in Ruby which interface with RFID readers?
