Application examples, hints and tutorials

Timing, RFID, and radio-controlled cars

In addition to reading and writing tags, the Yocto-RFID-15693 module API allows you to program a callback that is called every time a tag enters or leaves the antenna field. And these callbacks are time-stamped. It's only a short step from there to using this feature to build a stop-watch application, a step we didn't hesitate to take.

But does it really work? Let's find out with Yoctopuce modules and the Home Assistant home automation platform.
