Currently, I am enrolled in nine months course about Corporate Innovation and Entrepreneurships at Carnegie Mellon University Campus in Doha, Qatar.

Our project is to find new applications for RFID technology that can be innovative; my experience and background in RFID is limited to reading and using the technology. In our project, we are trying to find more implementations of RFID Technology besides the usual applications such as (reading of the chips.)

As we start this project, we would have to draw our first draft for the project (hardware, software and user interaction with the system.) At this point, I would appreciate it if I get help with:

1-The best RFID system for wide area coverage?
2-Best software and data base application to use to capture the raw data?

Reader feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.

Do you really think RFID is a good thing? How bout we make it that much easer for our Identification to be stolen... If I ever get a card with one of those things, I am going to take 3 steps to protect myself from this bad idea.
1. Find the biggest magnet (strongest) I can find, place the card under it for a day, flip it and let it sit for another day.
2. Take a hammer and bash the hell out of the chip.
3. then place it in my wallet that I purchased from "ThinkGeek.com", that is designed to block RFID from getting out and coming in. If it doesn't fit, I will make it!

I don't care what kind of encrypted algorithm any one uses, anything and everything can be cracked... all it takes is time...
