RFID Comes to Japan’s Ginza
The Ginza is the big shopping district in Tokyo. Beginning in January, RFID chips posted around the area will guide those with prototype readers to train stations and share information about stores and the like. The Tokyo Ubiquitous Network Project is supported by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government and Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MILT) and isn’t the only RFID trial in the country. Another trial embeds chips in pavement to be read by the canes of the visually impaired.
