Interacting with the digital world through RFID-powered gadgets

Abstract

The Internet of Things is a field of the Future Internet that has a significant support from different institutions. Research has been done in this area for years and although it has progressed significantly, their goals remain the same: designing innovative Internet-connected experiences and augmenting existing objects' capabilities with Internet-related features. The scientific community has explored new ways and concepts, such as, service generation and consumption or user interaction. In this paper we present our work on creating RFID-based smart gadgets in order to take Internet experience to the next level, merging the on-line and the tangible worlds into a single continuous space.
