Sensor reading for the NXP NTAG 5 Link, specifically with the Texas Instruments TMP117 sensor and the ACS ACR1552U PC/SC reader.
Install Python 3 and Pip (usually packaged with Python), both are probably available via your package manager. Use Pip in the terminal to install the requirements, I suggest to use a virtual environment but it works just as well without one.
python3 -m venv myenv
source myenv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
You can also install the packages any other way you like, required modules are pyscard, ber-tlv. If you use Nix, Flake and EnvRC files are provided.
A command-line interface is provided via the script ./ntag5sensor.py.
You need to specify the I2C address of the connected TMP117 chip if it is not the default one. This address is determined by the ADD0 pin connection of the TMP117 chip.
Known addresses:

72 - Temptress:
