This video is about exploring the spatial qualities of RFID, visualised through an RFID probe, long exposure photography and animation.

It features Timo Arnall of the Touch project and Jack Schulze of BERG.

    this is awesome - i love anything mapping volumes at the moment - really great idea testing with the led. Reminds me of Dunne and Raby type work, making the invisible visible.

    This is seriously cool!

    We run a contactless system (Snapper) in New Zealand. Would love to see if you could map our devices in this way

    Cheers

    Hello,
    this is a very creative analysis.
    However, if you ask any Electrical engineer he would be able draw this radiation pattern for any simple shape of antenna. Don't you think the people who designed RFID devices knew what they were doing?
  • timo plus 1 month ago
    Actually it is completely non-trivial to map the interactions between a reader and tag. When the information in the engineers datasheets are as misleading and vague as this (see link below, where they ask you to 'try and see') we absolutely need to do this ourselves.

    Maybe they just don't want to share that information with everyone?

    Here are some example of some models

    There's a difference between an empirical study as is done here, and what some simulation software may show you. I doubt any Electrical Engineer could draw anything as compelling as what this representation shows — it's a lovely time-based image that is far more aesthetic, tangible and empirical than models or data sheets.

    Futuristic, awesome, clinical and scary all at the same time. Love it.

    this is awesome! I think this is really great I enjoy seeing the fields that we normally cant. there's a project about visualizing wifi that's pretty cool but they don't use hi def cameras or clean overlay techniques like this, very prof guys. keep up the good work

    Magnifique !
    Très bonne idée

    Very Stylish video, really. I like this way of "feeling" physics, instead of the usual modeling. Mixing the designer's approach with the scientific processes is a way for the future. BUT !
    WTF ? All of that for a symbol ? Really ? You got lost in your way didn't you ? If that was what you were looking for you could have asked a junior physicist to draw it for you... (I could get even more crazy here but I won't because I really like the way you handled this in the first place....still ... "mystification"... come on guys !)
    To finish on a positive thought; I admit it : I am jealous, you have the dream job... and I am disgusted because I get the feeling that you don't get everything you might get out of it.
