MFRC522 Rfid-reader as keyboard input

Using Arduino Project Guidance
1

Dear forum,

I am completely new to Arduino and would like to make some very limited keyboard inputs using an MFRC522 rfid-reader, a couple of tags and an Arduino Nano. The inputs would have to be continuous and be able to be read simultaneously. I have tried the basic example sketches from this library GitHub - miguelbalboa/rfid: Arduino RFID Library for MFRC522 and managed to register my tags and get UID numbers.
But I can't understand how to make the tags register as keystrokes.
I have googled quite a lot for the last week but the examples I have found so far does not describe the process of keyboard emulation (if that is the correct term?) or use a different set of readers and tags.
Any ideas on were I should start searching for info or example sketch?

Best regards.

For USB keyboard emulation you need a special Arduino, where the USB controller can be programmed to act as a keyboard (HID) device.

Thank you for your reply DrDiettrich, I assume an Arduino Uno rev 3 would do the job?

No, but a Leonardo or Due should.
