great video, thank you so mucb for producing it!! I think you made a mistake at 4:08 claiming original protocol had 26 trailing parity bits, oops hehe, keep up the great work!
Thanks for your careful observation and bringing this to our attention! You are correct. It seems there was a misunderstanding during the video production. The original 26-bit Wiegand format does indeed include one parity bit, eight facility code bits, 16 ID code bits, and another trailing parity bit, making up the total of 26 bits, not 26 trailing parity bits. We appreciate your keen eye for details and your interest in our videos. We will make a note to correct this in future discussions. Keep watching and sharing your insights!
Apologies for any confusion! It could be a mix-up in the explanation. Wiegand protocol typically refers to a communication standard used in access control systems, not the number of wires in a card. The reference to "wires" likely stems from a misunderstanding. Wiegand cards themselves use a unique data encoding method, but the "wiegand protocol" is more about the signal transmitted between the card reader and the control system. Thanks for catching that, and I hope this clears things up!
