Re: Re: The Solution to Room Occupation Detection

I had my cat's done as well.

I have their unique IDs, and I am trying to source the AVID chip reader,
which 
retails for about 100USD. But I can't seem to find anyone to sell me
one.
They do kits for lab systems (pharmaceutical labs etc) which include loads
of 
needles and chips plus reader, but not unsurprisingly they are unwilling to
sell them to "guy's on the street".

The Tech spec says it'll read the chips from 6-8 inches and has rs232 
interface, and I have a cat flap on order which uses an rf collar and a
relay 
in the mech to release the flap, I am looking at logging the in/out data
and 
going to try and hook up something to make sure it _really_ is our cats
using 
it.

And of course put the data on the website. 

"Hillary exited at 11:23am" etc.

Something simliar to...
