This week we learned about two clever pieces of technology, RFID (Radio frequency identification), and QR codes. The RFID can cleverly be used when it comes to tracking and selling things. QR codes could definitely used for advertising my idea and spreading knowledge about these windows.
RFIDs are very versatile when it comes to their use. RFIDs could be used when it comes to selling my windows in stores. Instead of searching for a little bar code on the box the window would come in RFID would make it possible to just scan the item by walking out the store. RFIDs could also be used as tracking devices. If anyone were to act sneaky and try to steal and RFID out of the store the tag would automatically cause an alarm to go off because no one deactivated the tag.
QR codes would be helpful to further help me achieve success with my idea. QR codes could be placed anywhere, on posters, billboards, and bus stops. I would link the QR code to a website that has information about my windows. Using QR codes along with social networking sites, like twitter, would help spread the news about the windows a lot quicker.
I really like this entrepreneurial idea of touch screen and "Smart" glass. Computers have advanced so quickly to different form factors, from huge machines to slim tablets which are topped by, you guessed it, glass. I think the future is in touch screen computing and having "smart glass" throughout a house is a fantastic idea, and I believe our future. Implementing simple technology like RFID or QR codes will only enhance the product as it brings familiar gestures and actions on the consumer's part to a very new and potentially complicated project.
