- | |||
- | Developing such mobile RFID-enabled applications with traditional software abstractions is a daunting task given the extreme volatility of connections to RFID tags. Simple repositioning of the mobile (reader) device, interference, | ||
- | |||
- | We even go one step further, by representing RFID-tagged objects as full-blown software objects. State-of-the-art RFID applications merely use RFID tags as digital barcodes and remain oblivious to the enormous potential of RFID technology in ubiquitous computing scenarios. For example, they do not use the writable memory on RFID tags to store contextual information. | ||
- | |||
- | Using the abstractions we present further on this page, programming RFID applications becomes more natural as application logic can be directly expressed in terms of the presence or absence of software objects representing physical items. Building on the [[research: | ||

- | In short, we consider RFID tags as the bridge between the physical and digital world. They effectively store digital stand-ins for real world items. | ||
