Hi guys,

I'm actually planned to develop a Library System for my college as Final Year Project by using RFID reader. Can I use Java to develop the system and use Java to connect the reader to my system? or only for VB?

may i know how to connect it to my system and what kind of readers that I should purchase?

    You should get the USB version. It has an FTDI usb to serial chip on board. Then, you can just treat it like a serial device (COM port on Windows). For Java, you can use the rxtx library for serial port access.
