CMPSCI 291e: Electronic Identification Lab, Fall 2007

 

Electronic Identification Lab

The Electronic Identification Lab will teach students how to build systems that use Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). The lab is intended for students taking or having taken CS201. The class will be very hands-on and will involve (1) building RFID readers and tags, and (2) implementing modifications to a microcontroller-based RFID tag. Students will be evaluated based on homeworks/labs, a small team project, and lab participation.
