Hi Jack,

all Software that comes with the EXPLORE-NFC is written in C. In order to run the NFC Reader Library within an Java application, you need to find a way to execute C code from within Java.

Something similar for Python already exists here https://github.com/svvitale/nxppy

Software for the PN532 will not work with the PN512, becuase the PN532 is an NFC-Controller, the PN512 an NFC-Frontend.

That means, that the PN532 contains a middleware which offers a special command set, whereas the PN512 does not provide a middleware.
