PydgetRFID is a Python front-end to the Phidgets Inc. RFID kit. It wraps libphidgets with ctypes to communicate with the hardware. PydgetRFID consists of a D-Bus service that allows other applications (written in any language with D-Bus bindings) to use the hardware. It allows to start and stop reading, and emits a signal whenever a new tag is read. A simple graphical user interface (built with PyGTK) which uses this daemon is also provided. PydgetRFID is free software: it is licensed under the GNU GPL.
