ESP8266 Community Forum

After design of the RFID Relay Board I saw that I need something that I can use with my smart home project. Publishing RFID tag with wifi is a great idea and there will be lots of usage areas. There are very cheap RFID readers around for a while and bringing them together with our great hero esp8266 WiFi chip seems to me a good idea. You can find the details here:

This idea is nothing new, what an overkill design, why not just use an ESP12, no need for additional Atmega processor. Use MQTT publish UID and get node red to process as required, can even embed an offline mode for standalone operation to home nodes using TCP network communication!
