Wearable RFID Devices With Manually Activated RFID Tags
First Claim
1. A computer system comprising:
- an RFID reader;
a wearable RFID device operated by a user, wherein the wearable RFID device comprises at least one manually activated RFID tag;
a computing device in communication with at least the RFID reader,wherein the computing device is configured to implement one or more services, andwherein the one or more services are configured to;
identify the user;
receive, at the RFID reader, a first RFID signal from the manually activated RFID tag, wherein the first RFID signal is transmitted upon contact with the manually activated RFID tag by the user at a first time;
store, after receiving the first RFID signal from the manually activated RFID tag, information regarding at least one of the user or a task associated with the user in at least one data store;
generate an instruction for performing the task associated with the user based at least in part on the information; and
transmit the instruction for performing the task to at least one networked component.

Abstract
A wearable RFID device may include one or more manually activated RFID tags configured to transmit unique RFID signals in response to a manual activation thereof. Such wearable RFID devices may be worn about any aspect of a user'"'"'s body, such as a hand, a wrist or an arm of the user, who may contact the manually activated RFID tag and transmit an RFID signal that is consistent with a particular action or instruction associated with a task. The action or the instruction may be executed based on the RFID signal, or upon receiving a confluence or sequence of RFID signals. Additionally, a wearable RFID device may be recognized by one or more discrete systems and configured to operate such systems accordingly.
