The keeper's note
Wireless-tag interactive user system.
Abstract
There is provided a system including a wireless tag reader, a first wireless antenna, a wireless tag including an integrated circuit (IC), a conductive element electronically connecting the wireless tag to the first wireless antenna, a non-transitory memory storing an executable code, a hardware processor executing the executable code to transmit an interrogation signal, receive a tag signal from the wireless tag electronically connected to the first wireless antenna in response to the interrogation signal, the tag signal including a wireless tag identification (ID) uniquely identifying the wireless tag, and determine an interaction by a user with the wireless tag based on the tag signal.
Background
BACKGROUND(1) Today, an increasing number of devices operate with wireless controls. With recent advances in wireless technology, even home appliances are being enabled to communicate wirelessly. With respect to wireless technology, power efficiency, size and ease of wireless enablement and communication remain major areas that are ripe for improvements and innovations.SUMMARY(2) The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for enabling user interactions with wireless tags, substantially as shown in and/or described in connection with at least one of the figures, as set forth more completely in the claims.
