This RFID reader will be able to read multiple RFID tags and look up information relating to these tags from a database stored on an SD card. If the information is not found in memory, the reader will attempt to download the information from a central database via WIFI connection. The information will be displayed in a user-friendly format on a touch screen LCD display. Audio information tied to the tag will be output though a standard stereo jack on the reader that can be used with headphones. There will be an option to select which tag's information to display out of all those in proximity to the reader. Ideally, signal triangulation could be used to sense the direction and distance to the detected tags. Function List:
- Sense and read all RFID tags in vicinity
- Retrieve information tied to sensed IDs from database
- Database stored on SD card or downloaded through WIFI connection
- User-friendly graphical interface, maybe touch screen controlled?
- Able to read both passive and active RFID tags
- Able to read information from sensor type RFID tags
- Ability to evaluate approximate distance from tags from signal strength or triangulation.
- Standards compliant device, works with off the shelf standardized RFID tags.
- Battery Operated
