RFID Sniffer workshop series

The RFID sniffer is a simple analog electronic circuit which can detect the presence of 13.56 MHz RFID tags. These tags are commonly used in all kinds of plastic cards like access badges and bank cards. But books, toys, and even clothing might also be tagged. Carrying tagged objects with you can reveal your identity or whereabouts to anyone equipped with the appropriate tools to read RFID tags.
