title: RFID, Keyboard Wedge and Java
body: <p>There are loads of RFID tutorial on the com port but none on the usb.
  There are descriptions of C# with the keyboard wedge but not for java.</p>
  
  <p>I have a keyboard wedge,'think thats a c# term' it basically gives the id as keystrokes. I need to verify the keyboard input is coming from the rfid tag.</p>
  
  <p>I got the reader from ebay, there is no configuration tool and no sdk or api. But works automatically as if its typing from the keyboard.</p>
  
  <p>One suggestion I found on a c# answer was</p>
  
  <p><em>Currently I'm handling this by attaching to the KeyPress event and looking for a series of very fast key presses that contain the card swipe sentinel characters.</em></p>
  
  <p>looks hopeful but not sure how to do this</p>
