>Is there a way to somehow read a data from a chip on ID card or from chip on driver license?
I have recently been involved in a "proximity card reader" and punch clock.
The reader reads a chip on a card and returns a encrypted number, where once you know the formula to decrypt in it returned the information I needed.
But you have to know the formula to decrypt it, and this came to me with a written authorization from the customer to the manufacturer of the cards and the reader. The proximity reader came from Kantech (
