Casagras Project Files Interim Report On Rfid And 'the Internet Of Things'

摘要

Partners in the EU Framework 7 CASAGRAS Project on the future standards and applications of RFID are to take a broader approach to their brief during the project's final year as they seek to develop an inclusive model for the emerging Internet of Things. In their interim report, filed in October with the European Commission, the partners say that following a review of European-based project and conference developments it was clear that the concept of the Internet of Things required further definition and development in terms of scope and content. In addition, the review showed that RFID, although seen as a key enabler for the Internet of Things, was not the only technology that could contribute to a networked infrastructure exploiting the potential for connecting to the physical world.
