RDIF Will Change How Business Works

Wednesday, March 9th, 2005

The other day one of my staff sent me a link about a new use for RDIF tags. For those of you who don’t know about RDIF tags…they are little electronic devices embedded in cloth that can be electronically read from a short distance. Here’s a short description of how they can be used taken from pcjournal.com.

RDIF Tags–If You Haven’t Heard of Them You Soon Will
J. Bradley Young
Imagine the grocery store of the future. You fill your cart with groceries and proceed to the payment desk. Without the necessity of placing all of your items on some freakish conveyor belt, you simply proceed to the payment desk where a clerk hands you a debit receipt that shows the cost of all of your groceries and the remaining balance in your checking account. No scanning…no pin number….no hassles.

RDIF tags are going to be used in so many products. Imagine walking up to a Soda Machine that says “Win Sodas Instantly.” In the cap of each soda could be one of these RDIF tags. As the soda drops through the chute it could pass the “reader” and if you “win” then the soda drops out and so does your original money you put in. I came up with this idea just now…imagne what the real inventors are going to do with this…like Dart Mail (warning video is 18mb).

This Dart Mail invention is just one more glimpse of how RDIF tags are going to be used for many more things than just identifying a product.

Auxiliary Displays - Computers that Compute Even When They’re Turned Off!

Tuesday, March 8th, 2005

http://www.code-magazine.com/Article.aspx?quickid=050043

PCs are great machines when they are on. Unfortunately, they are just about useless when they are off. This is about to change! In Windows “Longhorn,” monitors are not enough. In addition to conventional displays, Longhorn (the next version of Windows) supports “Auxiliary Displays,” or short, “Aux Displays.”

iButton®: Microchip Technology Goes Further

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2005

The iButton® is a computer chip enclosed in a 16mm stainless steel can. Because of this unique and durable stainless steel can, up-to-date information can travel with a person or object anywhere they go. The steel button can be mounted virtually anywhere because it is rugged enough to withstand harsh environments, indoors or outdoors. It is durable enough to attach to a key fob, ring, watch, or other personal items and used daily for applications such as access control to buildings and computers.
