RFID Closes the Wireless Communications Loop
Overview Hideko, a 27-year-old Tokyo resident, participated in NTT DoCoMo's test of its R-Click service, which employed Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) technology. With RFID, a tiny chip and an antenna are attached to objects, and information stored on the chip - up to 64 KB worth - is then sent to an RFID reader, a mobile phone in this case, via radio waves. As part of the test group, Hideko received an RFID device about the size of a lipstick tube that fastened to her mobile phone and transmitted information about products and services directly to the handset via e-mail while she shopped at the fashionable Roppongi Hills complex.
