Question for a new Arduino project

Development Boards Arduino
1

I am a beginner to the Arduino. I would like to look into the Arduino-based RFID tag reader. Especially, I would like to make a arduino RFID reader reading the following tags.

So I am thinking of buying the Arduino Due board, XBee 1mW Wire Antenna - Series 1 (802.15.4) and xbee shield.

Please let me know if it is going to work… If not, please recommend the correct module and shield.

Thanks.

Check the specs!

The tags you lined to are for 890 - 960 MHz and the Sparkfun devices are generally 13.56MHz. But then, I haven’t fully checked out ALL the sparkfun options

Does it mean that if I buy a module which has 860-960 MHz range, it can detect?

I found this module. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9097

is it going to be compatible? Or is there any other thing that I need to look into on the spec?

Absolutely not!

why are you stuck on that tag?

What you just linked to is a radio, capable of establishing a network, it will NOT read an RFID tag!

You really need to do some research on the subject: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sp … okup-guide

Here is the lowdown on RFID frequencies:
