CO-LOCATED RADIO-FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION FIELDS
First Claim
1. A method for co-locating an Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) signal field with a representation perceptible by one or more human senses, the method comprising:
- (a) accessing, by a user interface, a representation of a signal field stored in a memory element, the representation comprising a plurality of data points each recording a value of a characteristic of the signal field at a respective physical position;
(b) providing, by the user interface based on the accessed data points, a human-perceptible representation of the signal field to a user, the human-perceptible representation facilitating user interactions with the signal field using a RFID device;
(c) detecting, by an interactivity engine, an interaction between the RFID device and the signal field; and
(d) generating, by the interactivity engine, an action based on the detected interaction.

Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to methods and systems for co-locating an Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) signal field with a representation perceptible by one or more human senses. A user interface may accessing a representation of a signal field stored in a memory element. The representation may include a plurality of data points each recording a value of a characteristic of the signal field at a respective physical position. Based on the accessed data points, the user interface may provide a human-perceptible representation of the signal field to a user. The human-perceptible representation may facilitate user interactions with the signal field using a RFID device. An interactivity engine may detect an interaction between the RFID device and the signal field. In some embodiments, the interactivity engine may generate an action based on the detected interaction.
