-at the moment this project sits abandoned-
Basically using a TI launchpad with a cheap RC522 RFID reader. This is all using the Energia interface, and involved re hashing the Energia RC522 library built for the MSP430.
Motivation for this came from sourcing a bunch of launchpads when they were going cheap on TIs website. This project is incomplete! So the modified library works and the serial terminal of sorts works. I'm currently having bugs with authenticating mifare cards with new access codes...
