NFC and LED

[Stronghead]

Hello,

I recently set up my Raspberry Pi B+ to work with the Adafruit pn532 nfc breakout board using libnfc (tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-nfc ... i/overview). My next goal is to light up an led using the gpio pins on the Raspberry Pi when a certain NFC tag touches the reader. I have no idea where to even look, or even what language I need to program this in. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Edit: Further research led me to a library by the name of "WiringPi" that apparently makes GPIO access quite easy; does anyone know if it is possible to combine this with libnfc to do what I need?

Hi,

I am looking for solution for same problem.

Can you please let me know if you found some solution?

libnfc and wiringpi are both C libraries so yes both can be used together.

The nfc breakout board only uses the uart so there should be alot of free GPIO pins for controlling any LEDs.
