Project Background
Auto-ID Labs
The Auto-ID Labs are an independent network of currently seven academic research labs that research and develop new technologies for revolutionizing global commerce and providing previously un-realizable consumer benefits. The Labs are run by the Auto-ID Labs Board of Directors which assembles the Labs research directors. Currently the board is co-chaired by Prof. Sanjay Sarma and Prof. Elgar Fleisch. The GS1/ EPCglobal Board of Governors serves as primary advisor.[1]
Ambient Assisted Living
Ambient Assisted Living (AAL, auf Deutsch Altersgerechte Assistenzsysteme für ein selbstbestimmtes Leben, umgebungsunterstütztes Leben, selbstbestimmtes Leben durch innovative Technik oder Assistenssysteme fürs Alter) umfasst Methoden, Konzepte, (elektronische) Systeme, Produkte sowie Dienstleistungen, welche das alltägliche Leben älterer und auch benachteiligter Menschen situationsabhängig und unaufdringlich unterstützen. Die verwendeten Techniken und Technologien sind nutzerzentriert, also auf den Menschen ausgerichtet und integrieren sich in dessen direktes Lebensumfeld. Die Technik passt sich folgerichtig an die Bedürfnisse des Nutzers an und nicht umgekehrt. Um Kontextinformationen zu teilen, können Technologien im AAL-Umfeld sinnvollerweise modular und vernetzbar aufgebaut sein, um ein pseudointelligentes Verhalten aufzuweisen. Diese Eigenschaft ist jedoch nicht zwingend erforderlich.[2]
Radio Frequency Identification
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the wireless use of electromagnetic fields to transfer data, for the purposes of automatically identifying and tracking tags attached to objects. The tags contain electronically stored information. Some tags are powered by electromagnetic induction from magnetic fields produced near the reader. Some types collect energy from the interrogating radio waves and act as a passive transponder. Other types have a local power source such as a battery and may operate at hundreds of meters from the reader. Unlike a barcode, the tag does not necessarily need to be within line of sight of the reader and may be embedded in the tracked object. RFID is one method for Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC).[3]
