Ahhh the future, a time when we will fly to work, cloning will have wiped out hunger (ohhh controversial), medicine will allow us to live for centuries and robots will cater to our every need. I can’t wait for the future, I’ll be first in the queue for bionic implants, I’ll save long and hard for my household droid and I’ll fly my jetpack through your front garden with reckless abandon.
Until that glorious day when I get to soar like a pasty, portly eagle through private property, I’ll have to make do with this little fella. He’s not a jetpack, or a flying robot or a robot at all really. He’s an RFID (radio frequency identification) reading ticket dispenser made by NEC that allows wireless payment, something that’s rapidly gaining popularity in the far east.
Quite a few mobile phone handsets in Japan are equipped with a RFID chip which allows them to send a unique code to RFID readers, this code identifies the owner and allows them to charge things to their bank account without using a card. Clever stuff.
This reader is designed to be used at theme parks, visitors with so called ‘wallet phones’ (RFID enabled mobiles) can forgo queuing and purchase their tickets from this friendly little fellow.
Not only a cunning way to speed up ticket queues, this reader also includes face recognition technology. This allows theme parks to recognise and profile their guests in a clever albeit slightly Orwellian manner. Once the customer’s face has been scanned, the gadget can recommend specific attractions based on their apparent age and gender. Pretty cool no?
No word on when/if these little beauties will be hitting the shores of Blighty, I’ll keep you updated.
