Overview

  • RaspberryPi
    • Running Rasbpian
      • ssh raspberrypi.local

Setup

Steps Taken

  1. Installed Raspbian on a 16GB SD memory card
  2. Followed this guide to get I2C available
    • Used this article to determine that I had a 256MB Model B RaspberryPi. This is important, because when checking i2cdetect I have to use "-y 0" instead of the "-y 1".

Troubleshooting

  • Ran into this error when running DannyO's (hubcitylabs) poll.py script:

quick2wire/i2c.py", line 72, in transaction

   ioctl(self.fd, I2C_RDWR, addressof(ioctl_arg))

Resources

Python Approach

  • usbScan.py
    • Script will continuously scan for new USB devices, and call ldap Check. If ldap check successful, call DoorUnlock.
  • nfcScan.py
    • same as usbScan.py, except for NFC (and RFID)
  • ldapCheck.py
    • Take in value, see if it's in the LDAP
  • DoorUnlock.py
    • Throw pins high and low on the GPIO to trigger relays that will be tied to a powerbolt1000.
    • Monitor pins wired to reed switches to ensure door is closed before re-locking.

Perl Approach

  • Would have to write an PN532 driver in perl
  • Alternatively have perl call python scripts, python already has a PN532 driver written
  • Write a new ackis module for NFC monitoring
