Continuing the work from last year I've pieced together a system that tracks attendees during our event using RFID cards. Join me on a trip down memory lane how I got this whole solution to jive. I've tried various ingredients to come to the current mix of Raspberry Pi, Node-red, Python, MQTT/Mosquitto, and DNN. The goal was to improve upon last year's solution (built using mono) and make it more reliable/resilient.
