A new washing machine developed by the Dai Nippon Printing Company can read special smart tags on clothing and instruct the user the best method with which to wash the clothes. Not only that, but the LG-built unit can keep track of how many times a particular item has been washed, what material it is made out of, and can even send an email or SMS when your load of laundry is complete.

RFID Tags Don't Work That Well 11/03/2003 12:21 PM
For all the focus on how RFID tags could lead to invasions of privacy or how Wal-Mart is going to use them in all parts of their operation, one thing that many people have apparently overlooked is the fact that the technology still isn't all that reliable. I'm sure it will get better and the problems will get fixed, but this report points out that the technology doesn't work all that well sometimes. Everyone admits that RFID systems are likely to become a big thing, but the timing may not be as fast as has been predicted. In fact, some are wondering if the smaller companies providing RFID technology will be able to stay in business long enough.

RFID tags gaining in popularity but
consumer beware

RFID tags gaining in popularity but
consumer beware 07/01/2004 03:53 PM

Some big names in business are investing serious cash in researching RFID tags. I have no doubt that RFID tags will be on virtually everything including embedded in clothes, consumer products etc. I am aware of the power of tracking products consumable products from cradle to grave.

Imagine buying some steaks at Costco and taking them home and when you put them in your refrigerator you push a inventory button and your Wifi connected fridge broadcast the updated information to your computer. You want to see where those steaks came from login to your PC and connect to national database which includes information that gives you DOB of the Steer, what the animal was fed, what type of injections it had, what processing plant processed the meat, where it was stored, what temperature variations the meat was subjected etc.

Does this sound far-fetched. Well I challenge that in 5 years or less this will be possible. But I caution you this could be a two way street. You buy a pack of cigarettes at Walmart on your debit card this purchase is tracked and then your life insurance company buys a profile about your buying habits and then send you a rate increase because now you are a high risk client in that you are a candidate for lung cancer.

Think about that the next time you see a RFID tag. [Infoworld]

Smart Clothing

David Pescovitz has a nice round-up of the current state of 'smart clothes,' or "computer couture" as he's calling it - textiles that do fun or intelligent or useful things, like dispense medicines, keep themselves clean, and display Pac-Man ghosts via Bluetooth. We've talked about a lot of this stuff before, but it's still neat to see them all sort of next to each other. Too bad smart fabrics have been just on the cusp of production for years and years. I'd be happy with just a shirt I could change the logo on.

It looks like Microsoft (MSFT:Nasdaq - news - research) has cried wolf too many times. Investors shrugged off the software behemoth's conservative outlook for 2005, bidding up the stock Friday in the wake of the firm's strong top- and bottom-line third-quarter results. After all, many noted, Microsoft gave similarly conservative guidance a year ago -- only to prove itself wrong with revenue growth on track to reach an impressive 13% this year. On Friday, Microsoft shares jumped $1.59, or 6.1%, to $27.54 with more than 255 million shares changing hands -- about four times its average daily volume.
