STUDYING AND GAMING INTERACTIVE SURFACES WITH THE IDENTIFICATION OF OBJECTS USING RFID

Abstract

Electronic combinable modular system based on a plurality of multidimensional geometric forms, to locate the position of a plurality of Transponder RFID in a multidimensional space and to read and write the informations included. The system includes: a plurality of combinable modular local units, a plurality of combinable modular subsystems, at least a microcontroller and at least an irradiating antenna, connected to the modular subsystems, to put any individual modular local unit in communication with at least a reader/writer Receiver of Transponder RFID. The innovation of the finding allows significant improvements and cost-effectiveness in the construction of arrays or series of antennas as well as new operating modes in recreational, educational and communication fields. The innovation is significant as it facilitates the interaction even to children not yet schooled and to disabled people of any age.
