A way to give your stuff wireless IDs
Companies such as Wal-Mart and Procter and Gamble and the US government dream of what they call the Internet of Things, in which every manufactured object is tagged and tracked via radio frequency identification technology.
n other words, just as you can quickly find individual photos, videos, and blog posts on the Web, physical objects will one day become completely “visible” in cyberspace.
Corporations and the feds can already locate an RFID-tagged item anywhere in the supply chain, from the factory to the dumpster, provided they have enough reader devices along the way to detect the object. Now the Parisian company Violet is promoting the Internet of Things idea to consumers, with a cute new RFID reader for the home.
The Mir:ror, due out this week, is a hip-looking device you plug into your computer that makes your tagged car keys or paperweights into application-and-content-launching doodads.
The folks at Violet believe humans “were born on the wrong side of the (computer) screen” to experience much of the Internet’s magic.
