There have been reports of tests of RFID chips that function only at a very close range (20-30cm) thus reducing the risks of remote survaillance. | There have been reports of tests of RFID chips that function only at a very close range (20-30cm) thus reducing the risks of remote survaillance. | ||
There are upsides to RFID regarding implementation [[ | There are upsides to RFID regarding implementation [[Consumerium Services]], but maybe the best solution would to develop packaging materials that have Radio Frequency or Conduction based identification that is activated only by touching the product with a device that sends a signal to the product to identify itself via conduction. | ||
Perhaps the most workable solution would be to embed this kind of communication infrastructure to the shelf and to the mobile terminal so that you just have to find a sign in the shelf that symbolizes the product and touch it to get the identification data. This way the packaging wouldn't have to contain wasteful, disposable chips. | Perhaps the most workable solution would be to embed this kind of communication infrastructure to the shelf and to the mobile terminal so that you just have to find a sign in the shelf that symbolizes the product and touch it to get the identification data.
