Electronic cigarette can be a good conversation starter and interaction device. Its interestingness can be used for social network building and thus using virtual communities (e.g. Face book, Twitter etc.) to exchange...
This paper proposes a consumer-oriented design of Interaction System applied in a digital zoo. In order to introduce a new experience of visiting zoos, a series of interaction interfaces and applications is designed based on the web surfing. The applications can be located anywhere has Internet connection, used by visitors both in and out of the zoo. In the meantime, zoo staffs can use the system...
In this paper we present our approach to use a combination of radio frequency identification (RFID) and a wireless camera sensor network to identify and track animals at a zoo. We have developed and installed 25 cameras covering the whole zoo. The cameras are totally autonomous and they are configuring themselves in a wireless ad-hoc network. At strategic locations RFID readers are deployed to identify...
In this paper, we discuss the reliability evaluation and qualification results of a small (~ 256b) pFET based floating gate nonvolatile memory for embedded application in a UHF RFID chip that is being volume produced using a foundry logic CMOS process. The memory is based on bi-directional Fowler-Nordheim tunneling using a ~65-70 Aring oxide that is available from typical foundry processes with 3...
