So, first there was GPS. Then, there was Growl integration. The next progression is to see what we can do with other hardware. There is a great site called Phidgets that contains a bunch of different input devices and controllers that you can hook up to your computer. The best part of their selection is that they offer a NATIVE Java API. So leveraging this API, we can use Merapi to broadcast RFID events into AIR. Pretty cool stuff, if I do say so myself. This screencast is just demo of watching for events when a RFID tag enters the sensor area and exits the sensor area, but it conveys the general point. Enjoy and, as always, comments are welcome!
