Book excerpt: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a technology that uses radio waves to read and capture information stored in a tag attached to an object or location. In this work, we further exploit this technology to find other applications that differ from its classic one and show how powerful RFID can become in the near future. We present three novel ways of taking advantage of RFID technology that go beyond object identification: an RFID-based anti-counterfeiting architecture for electronic components, a passive displacement sensor using RFID technology and an example of how an RFID tag can perform as an actuator, designing a remote control car driven via RFID. In the first of them (Section 3), we showed the feasibility of using this technology in a PCB production line to authenticate a chip during the pick and place stage, by building a demo where a pick and place machine was linked to an RFID reader. Designs of very small RFID tag antennas are proposed but most likely due to variations in the manufacturing process, they didn't perform as expected. In Section 4 we present an implementation of the principle of RFID tag antenna based sensing by developing a displacement sensor. We conclude that displacement can be mapped to antenna bandwidth and best match frequency. However, for a sensor with higher sensitivity for little displacements, we conclude that a reader with higher RSSI resolution is needed. Finally, in Section 5 we propose two different approaches of controlling a car via RFID technology. Approach A uses the RFID IC writable user memory and Approach B the baseband RFID signal at the tag. In the end we conclude that Approach B is much better as far as time response is concerned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems are emerging as one of the most pervasive computing technologies due to their broad applicability. RFID systems consist of tiny integrated circuits equipped with antennas (RFID tags) that communicate with their reading devices (RFID readers). This technology works using radio-frequency waves without line of sight. It has created tremendous opportunities for linking various objects in the physical world. These objects can be numbered, identified, cataloged, and tracked. RFID systems present many advantages and features that cannot be found in other ubiquitous computing environments. RFID communication is fast, convenient, and its application can substantially save time, improve services, reduce labor cost, thwart product counterfeiting and theft, increase productivity gains, and maintain quality standards. Suitable for layman as well as professionals, this book examines various RFID topics, such as: RFID system elements * tools * techniques and technologies behind RFID * implementation issues of RFID * RFID and bar code technology * RFID standards * RFID systems and solutions for library * RFID applications in various arenas * RFID and consumer privacy issues * near field communications and RFID in Indian and global perspectives.

This book was released on 2007-06-12 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Informatik - Internet, neue Technologien, Note: 1,0, Freie Universität Berlin (Institut für Informatik), Veranstaltung: Understanding mobile technologies and services, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Immer wieder liest man heute in der Presse, RFID wäre die Zukunft. Nun stellt sich die Frage, die Zukunft von was. Was ist überhaupt RFID? Leider kann man diese Frage nicht ganz so einfach beantworten. RFID oder auch generell Verfahren zur Autoidentifikation dienen sehr generell formuliert der drahtlosen Übertragung von Objektdaten zum Zwecke der Erfassung und eindeutigen Identifizierung der entsprechenden Objekte. Diese Objekte kön-nen sehr vielfältig sein, von Warenpaletten bis zu Personen. Ein Einsatzge-biet von RFID, welches von der Industrie momentan wohl am meisten geför-dert wird, stellt die Anwendung in der Logistik dar. An die Stelle der auf-wändigen manuellen Erfassung von eingehenden und ausgehenden Waren rückt die automatische, berührungslose Registrierung, die den gesamten Weg der Versorgungskette, vom Hersteller bis in den Supermarkt, vereinfachen und kosteneffektiver machen soll.

Download or read book A Billion Little Pieces written by Jordan Frith and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How RFID, a ubiquitous but often invisible mobile technology, identifies tens of billions of objects as they move through the world. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is ubiquitous but often invisible, a mobile technology used by more people more often than any flashy smartphone app. RFID systems use radio waves to communicate identifying information, transmitting data from a tag that carries data to a reader that accesses the data. RFID tags can be found in credit cards, passports, key fobs, car windshields, subway passes, consumer electronics, tunnel walls, and even human and animal bodies—identifying tens of billions of objects as they move through the world. In this book, Jordan Frith looks at RFID technology and its social impact, bringing into focus a technology that was designed not to be noticed. RFID, with its ability to collect unique information about almost any material object, has been hyped as the most important identification technology since the bar code, the linchpin of the Internet of Things—and also seen (by some evangelical Christians) as a harbinger of the end times. Frith views RFID as an infrastructure of identification that simultaneously functions as an infrastructure of communication. He uses RFID to examine such larger issues as big data, privacy, and surveillance, giving specificity to debates about societal trends. Frith describes how RFID can monitor hand washing in hospitals, change supply chain logistics, communicate wine vintages, and identify rescued pets. He offers an accessible explanation of the technology, looks at privacy concerns, and pushes back against alarmist accounts that exaggerate RFID's capabilities. The increasingly granular practices of identification enabled by RFID and other identification technologies, Frith argues, have become essential to the working of contemporary networks, reshaping the ways we use information.

Download or read book RFID Applied written by Jerry Banks and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-03-30 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radio frequency identification or RFID is a broad-based technology that impacts business and society. With the rapid expansion of the use of this technology in everything from consumer purchases to security ID tags, to tracking bird migration, there is very little information available in book form that targets the widest range of the potential market. But this book is different! Where most of the books available cover specific technical underpinnings of RFID or specific segments of the market, this co-authored book by both academic and industry professionals, provides a broad background on the technology and the various applications of RFID around the world. Coverage is mainly non-technical, more business related for the broadest user base, however there are sections that step into the technical aspects for advanced, more technical readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While literature in computer-based and networked media has so far been experienced by looking at the computer screen and by using keyboard and mouse, nowadays human-machine interactions are organized by considerably more complex interfaces. Consequently, this book focuses on literary processes in interactive installations, locative narratives and immersive environments, in which active engagement and bodily interaction is required from the reader to perceive the literary text. The contributions from internationally renowned scholars analyze how literary structures, interfaces and genres change, and how transitory aesthetic experiences can be documented, archived and edited.

Download or read book Beyond Paradise written by Jack Clayton Swearengen and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-03-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology is shaping our culture and controlling our lives--for better or for worse. Often, technology's benefits far outweigh its negative impacts, and technological advances can seem boundless. But the scientific-technological worldview tends to override other value systems. Indeed, this technological way of thinking has influenced many contemporary ideas, beliefs, values, habits, and ways of communicating. Furthermore, in addition to technology's well-known environmental impacts, social, aesthetic, and spiritual consequences are now emerging. How can we balance positive physical effects of technology with other ambiguous or negative impacts? Some of the decisions we face have no precedent from which to draw wisdom. For this reason, the resources of Scripture and the Christian tradition must be brought to bear on technological questions: How is technology used and abused today? Does technological progress lead to human progress? How can Scripture help us, both individually and collectively, to manage technology's impact in proactive ways? Swearengen uncovers a comprehensive scriptural mandate for managing technology. On his way to a theology of technology, he evaluates which advances are moving society in directions consistent with God's purposes. Beyond Paradise: Technology and the Kingdom of God aims to provide practical means for assessing technology's influence and for steering technology and its effects toward biblical ends.
