NFC-WISP: an open source software defined near field RFID sensing platform

Published: 07 September 2015 Publication History

Abstract

Near-field radio frequency identification (RFID) tags have a number of unique features such as being wirelessly powered, having ultra low power communication capabilities, small size and low cost. These qualities paired with the increasing availability of commodity near field communication (NFC) enabled smart phones presents a significant opportunity to enable a wide range of new applications and usage scenarios. However, existing NFC tags are mainly used for identification.
This demo presents the NFC-WISP, which is an programmable, sensing and computationally enhanced platform designed to explore new RFID enabled sensing and user interface applications. Two example applications using NFC-WISP are showed: one is a battery-free display tag; the other is a real-time temperature tracking and motion indicating tag for cold chain monitoring application.
