ACR122U
The ACR122U RFID reader.

A couple of months ago, I've bought an RFID reader, since I was looking forward to tinker with the new OV-chipkaart (similar to the UK Oyster card). I started reading a lot about the design of the Mifare 4K contactless smart cards, and about the hacks done by Karsten Nohl at CCC in Berlin, as well as the research done on this subject by Radboud University in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.

On this page I've gathered some specs of the ACR122U contactless smart card reader, which can be used to read and write data stored on the OV-chipkaart.

I'll bring the ACR122U along to eth0, so if anyone wishes to tinker with the RFID cards, be my guest. I also wish to encourage anyone to contribute to this article. If I left anything out, or in case of factual errors, feel free to add/correct.

Some general marketing blabber

Who will bring rfid cards

  • failbaitr 2 ski-data passes (Andorra Val north / Austria)
  • pluisje 2 Dutch OV-chipcards, 1 Heineken company-acccesscard, if I can find it a ski-data Andorra-pass.
  • Aequitas NS-busyness card (not ov-chipcard, ns-only bussines traveling card, wonder what information it holds)
  • Dekkers 1 student OV chipcard, 1 TU Delft student card
  • Will-Do Does a normal chipcard also works? I have one given to me by school bit in about a month it doesn't work anymore. I also have a new schoolpass. And I have a OV-Student)chipcard (But I like to keep it working)
  • Sander will bring a couple of Mifare 1K cards; these aren't used for the regular OV-chipkaart, but are interesting to tinker with nonetheless.
  • Aldert the usual OV stuff but also some building passes :)
  • mrngm - OV Studentchipcard, NS VDU (expired, though with RFID) and anonymous OV-chipcard

Will-Do: The normal chipcards don't work with the ACR122U. It's an contactless RFID r/w. sander 15:51, 5 January 2010 (CET)
