Object recognition and localization service using RFID
First Claim
1. An apparatus for creating and managing a database of meta-data sets for a plurality of objects performed by at least one processor comprising:
- (A) at least one identity sensor configured to identify a meta-data set for at least one object;
said meta-data set is configured to characterize a “
j”
-object;
said meta-data set selected from the group consisting of;
a first item;
a second item;
an “
i”
-th item; and
ID-j tag;
“
i” and
“
j”
being integers;
(B) at least one sensor configured to locate at least one “
j”
-object in said identified meta-data set;
(C) at least one sensor configured to collect a meta-data set for said at least one identified and located object;
and(D) a computer means configured to create said database of meta-data sets for said plurality of objects;
wherein said identity sensor (A) further comprises;
(A1) an ID tag attached to at least one said object;
wherein said ID tag is selected from the group consisting of;
a quick response code (QR code) attached to said object;
an RFID tag;
a low power RFID tag;
a barcode; and
an infra-red tag; and
an ultra sound tag.

Abstract
A method of creating and managing a database of meta_data sets for a plurality of objects is provided. The meta-data set is configured to characterize an object. The meta_data set for a “j”-object is selected from the group consisting of: a first item; a second item; an “i”-th item; and ID-j tag; wherein “i” and “j” being integers. The method comprises: (A) identifying a meta_data set for at least one object; (B) collecting a meta_data set for at least one object; (C) creating the database of meta_data sets for the plurality of objects; (D) storing the database of meta_data sets for the plurality of objects; and (E) accessing the database of meta_data sets for the plurality of objects.
