RFID: Internet of Things Workshop ...

Interesting RFID workshop looks to expand the potential of RFID application through consideration of future possibilities when things are connected to the internet. ...

... "RFID will play a pivotal role in fusing the physical world with the digital. RFID allows for the unique identification of objects, and any kind of online data can be linked to these unique ID's. Here is where the real world and the internet become two faces of the same reality. Things go online.

The participants of this workshop will develop scenarios for an internet of things. Ideas can range from scripts for small new rituals to outlines of societal changes of epic scale. The critical, utopian or nightmarish scenarios will be informed by lectures with concrete knowledge about currently available technology; by handy workshop tools that give hands-on experience in developing RFID applications, and by insightful presentations by cutting-edge makers and thinkers.

The workshop takes 3 days. The morning sessions are dedicated to lectures and presentations on technology, theory and interesting implementations of RFID. The afternoons are dedicated to development of participants projects. The workshop will take place in the seminar room of Mediamatic, at the 5th floor of the PostCS building. " ...
