Hi Jim,
Places like Sparkfun, Seeed Studio etc offer various RFID modules and there
is even one for the Arduino.
If you fancy doing something clever for low cost and have a central
location
to collect the data, the LinkIt Assist 2502 from Seeed along with the Grove
125Khz RFID Reader and then add the tags for 125Khz (you get 5 for $2.5)
you
could built a nice integrated system with a display to show the data was
read and using the onboard GSM module, send the data to a central location.
It all depends on your budget and the comparison costs with the commercial
stuff.
Seeed have a special price on the LinkIt Assist 2502 just now. It's a real
bargain at that price.
There is also 13.56Mhz systems but they cost a little more.
Dave.

Subject: [ukha_d] Cheap RFID systems
Not specifically home automation, but hoping someone with knowledge of RFID
systems will be able to point me in the right direction.
I'm looking for a cheap solution for tracking competitors on a walking
competition, recording them in and out of checkpoints.
There are commercial systems out there (SPORTident is the big one), but
that's no fun for a tekky and the costs are prohibitive for charity events.
So, anyone know of cheap cards/tags and readers to be able to build my own
system?
Jim
