@david-verbeck Nice idea David! Unfortunately it's unlikely this would work effectively using NFC, as you'd need to be really close to the reader to register (< 4cm). You'd then also need to have a powered reader around your neck also.

It is also used in Car?

@frodo241 said in Ring Social Network: Indeed, the idea sounds pretty interesting. Currently, I'm working with a mobile app development company so I think you can contact us if you need some assistance in the development of the app that will perform such verification So had he contacted you? Really want to see this app, sound like something cool!

@duncannfcring Looking at RFID enclosures was a good idea. Thanks!

After some investigation and try, I have figured out what's wrong for my pn532 breakout from elechouse, here's the lib fixed: https://github.com/picospuch/PN532 In my case, there're no additional lines other than the vcc, gnd, sdl, scl used.

@didgesteve Thanks for the info! I figured you couldnt do it but it couldn't hurt to ask. Il wait for the payment ring to be released. Just wish it looked a little cooler and not like a piece of plastic. A little carbon fiber would do it good. Anyway Thanks again!

Hi Parviz, sadly I don't sell any prototype due to legal responsability, if you only need to unlock the car by NFC, you can follow this easy step by step tutorial: http://www.instructables.com/id/NFC-Car-Door-Control/ Bye, Pierre

Hi, First off, I moved your post into a new thread, as it wasn't related to the thread you posted in. Secondly, How are you currently opening the gate? I've seen (movies) people use a garage door fob or using a pincode lock on the side. I think it's safe to say that the gate installers won't get you a nfc enabled access point unless they have such a service/device readily available to them, Which means that you'll either have to find a service that does or roll your own. If you haven't already- which should have been your first step, give them a call and see if they provide alternative ways of opening the gates.

Or you could use a password and generate a keyfile from text stored on the ring. Ideally, the ring would have to be at least Ultralight C or Mifare plus as they have encryption. (Perhaps a future upgrade) Another method may be to access an encryption key online via a password and that is used to decrypt sector stored information on the ring. A simple and immediate boost to security might be to use information contained on your ring now as password padding.
