DoCoMo to test RFID behavior inference in Yokohama
Via textually.org:
"According to Keita Watch via RFID in Japan, NTT DoCoMo recently developed a system that utilizes mobile phones and RFID tags to monitor and infer people's behaviors and deliver relevant information. "The system uses mobile phones that have the RFID reader capability. Those RFID reader phones read tags embedded in retail stores, for example, and the software running on the phones sends out information such as the stores people visited. Then the system infers people's behaviors and deliver information based on the inference results."
Potential MR applications for RFID are fairly obvious (not least being able to collect data about respondents without having to physically ask them).. has anyone done something MR-related with RFID tags already?
