I happened to work with one of your co-authors a handful of years ago. Did you happen to use a ThingMagic reader? I worked on the software side of the fixed readers (arm-linux based), not the small embedded reader modules. I also added a lot of improvements to the python API for rapid prototyping using the embedded module.
- beambot 13y agoIndeed, I used the ThingMagic M5e. All the code for the (python) drivers [1] and robot behaviors [2] are open sourced. Funny story... before (and after) doing higher-level robot behaviors, I worked on low-level reader hardware too (with our mutual colleague, I presume). Most recently, it was building SDRs to interact with super-high datarate passive tags with onboard sensors... to build cyborg dragonflies [3].

- darkarmani 13y agoI forgot that the stock python drivers weren't open source. The "dragonfly backpack" is a cool looking project.
