Where Did RFID Come From?

Love the coy indictment of America at 12:45.

I learned so much here. Well, I knew about the Great Seal stuff and a little bit about the cow stuff, mainly just the very beginning of the cow info. But other than that, all new information. 👍

you should check out sky scholar not something you would make a video about, but im telling you the man is a genius

It's a stupid thing of history. 🤣

It moos…..
Genius 😎

So a question. Your early example of throwing clothing into a box and it knows what you've picked.

How would a system know if there were more than one of the same item? Seems to me that having every bottle of ranch dressing have a unique rfid tag would be time consuming when inventory comes in. VS ranch dressing has it's own ID and each bottle is thusly id'd the same. How do you convey the qty of rfid tags being read?

Stop calling people by their last names. Call them by their first names.

6:00 Tax difficulties obviously

Keysight probes with many accessories (>10) come with an RFID tag on the little baggie for each accessory. Presumably they use it to ensure the kit in the box is complete.

I developed a somewhat similar inductively powered transponder system in the early '70s, receiving US patent 3,898.619 in 1975. The initial application was to automatically locate trains in British Columbia, Canada, without relying on the engineer. A continuously powered 200 kHz " interrogator" was located underneath the locomotive; when it passed over a "responder" buried in the ballast between ties, it powered a unique digital location code to be returned at 27 MHz, which was radioed in to a central office.

But, how does the Uniqlo self checkout determine multiples of the same item? Surely every green t-shirt does not have its own rfid code? Something in the scanner design allows multiples of the same code to be detected?

BIG BROTHER WATCHING YOU, TRACKING

One important part also worth mentioning seems the development of the ISO 14443 type A and B RFID communication standards for 13.56 MHz proximity cards. Type A is based on the MIFARE technology developed by Mikron in Gratkorn, Austria, which was then acquired by Philips (later NXP) in 1995. Type B was a competing/alternative data modulation technology proposed by Siemens (later Infineon). Those are now used ubiquitously in biometric passports, in contactless EMV payment cards and in lots of door access-control systems.

I worked for a contractor on the EZ-PASS project. The tail around the office was that at one point taking a picture of the occupants of the car was not deemed to be an invasion of privacy until a toll collecting agency sent a picture of the occupants of a supposed violation to the home of the owner of the car. The owner's wife opened the envelop recognized the driver as her husband's secretary and realized they were having an affair (and used that picture as part of the evidence).. After that only the image of the license plate could be saved.

Awesome video! 👍💛

If I used a patent that has just barely expired or is almost close enough to cause a lawsuit I would just say hey here is a reasonable amount of money or do you agree to this amount of the profit? Sign the paperwork saying you give permission and call it done. I just wouldn't risk it and right is right, I'm not a greedy person either so, I have an idea for anti theft, that would absolutely deter thieves while being non confrontational to protect employees, also giving the ability to identify the stolen goods and the person that took them easily without searching anyone or physically touching them either, while not being plainly visible to anyone, if I was a thief knowing that I could be marked and tracked by the item I took guaranteeing my arrest would make me look for another way to get money 🤣 you wouldn't even have to have it on everything just them knowing it PROBABLY is there and there is no way of them knowing would definitely deter most of theives , I wish I could afford to patent a few of my ideas before someone else figures them out and does it instead 😢I have many ideas but there are a few that definitely would be useful but I don't have the money to patent them or build functional prototypes etc 😟 and everyone thinks America is so great, not everyone here has it easy, someone has to be poor for someone else to be rich. I see so many people with great intelligence and abilities never get the chance to use it, I wonder how much we have missed out on just because people never get the ability to make their ideas

Someone a luciferian ?..he was the morning star from venus lolo

Uniqlo did it pretty late, Decathlon a french generalist sports supermarket chain has been doing it for a decade already, labeling all their products with RFID tags which sounded crazy and expensive at the beginning and is just the norm now. Their cashier most often don't scan the items it's auto scanned from the RFID chip

They call it ‘EZ-TAX’

I thought the mention of cows [you know, those animals that go moo 😉 ] would then go on to talk about tracking cows for when they are sold and eventually end up as meat. In the UK I'm fairly sure it was after the "mad cow" disease that tracking came compulsory.

Thanks!
