HOW TO - Logging into Windows XP using RFID

Rfidkb
Amal writes - "With RFID being impervious to dust and dirt, and being totally contactless, it's a perfect candidate for desktop authentication. In this feature, you're going to build a covert RFID enabled USB keyboard that keeps its enhanced functionality a secret from the general public. You'll be using open source software to enable the login process on your Windows based computer." - Link.
