AcousticTransducers
Transducers are devices that convert energy in one form to another. In acoustics we are mainly concerned with conversion of acoustic energy to electrical energy or vice versa.
Acoustic waves: Acoustic waves are pressure waves. They are different from Electromagnetic (EM) waves in that they need a medium to propagate. The waves propagates by induced vibrations in the medium. Therefore acoustic waves do not propagate in a vacuum unlike EM waves.
Acoustic wave propagation in air: Acoustic waves propagate in air when microscopically induced oscillations in air particles pass on their energy to neighbouring air particles which in turn will induce microscopic oscillations in their neighbouring air particles
RFID has been around for decades. This presentation describes the history and future functions of RFID in everyday life, supply chain, and places most people would never think RFID exists such as in warehouse/distribution applications.
Things that were inanimate objects just a decade ago are now able to develop a syntax with one another, send each other notifications that initiate a chain of commands, and in a certain sense, transcend their functionality. Many people find this idea terrifying, like a bad omen from a dystopian sci-fi reality. Others just think it’s neat that the RFID technology in their smart refrigerator sends a message to their smartphone to inform the user that yogurt’s gone bad. Whatever the case, whatever the opinion, RFID, this strangely old and simple, but advanced technology, will continue to intrigue us long into the future.
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the wireless use of electromagnetic fields to transfer data, for the purposes of automatically identifying and tracking tags attached to objects. The tags contain electronically stored information. Some tags are powered by electromagnetic induction from magnetic fields produced near the reader. Some types collect energy from the interrogating radio waves and act as a passive transponder. Other types have a local power source such as a battery and may operate at hundreds of meters from the reader. Unlike a barcode, the tag does not necessarily need to be within line of sight of the reader and may be embedded in the tracked object. RFID is one method for Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC).[1]
RFID tags are used in many industries. For example, an RFID tag attached to an automobile during production can be used to track its progress through the assembly line; RFID-tagged pharmaceuticals can be tracked through warehouses; and implanting RFID microchips in livestock and pets allows positive identification of animals.
Since RFID tags can be attached to cash, clothing, and possessions, or implanted in animals and people, the possibility of reading personally-linked information without consent has raised serious privacy concerns.[2]
In 2014, the world RFID market is worth $8.89 billion, up from $7.77 billion in 2013 and $6.96 billion in 2012. This includes tags, readers, and software/services for RFID cards, labels, fobs, and all other form factors. The market value is expected to rise to $27.31 billion by 2024.[3]
Radio Frequency Identification(RFID) is one of the most exciting technology that revolutionize the working practices by increasing efficiencies and improving profitability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

in nursing homes.
– Used in animals for tracking.
26. Controversy cont.
• Medical
– Health Risks
• Hard to remove once implanted.
• Long term effects unknown.
• Religious
– Mark of the Beast, etc.
• The implanted RFID chip is certain to inflame Christian
fundamentalists, some of whom believe that such chips
are the Satanic “mark of the Beast” predicted in
Revelations 13:16 “And he causeth all, both small and
great, rich and poor, free and bond to receive a mark in
their right hand, or in their foreheads.”
29. ETSI EN 302 208 standard

31. Reader Collision and Hidden Terminal
• The passive tags are not able to take part in the collision
resolution or avoidance, as in other wireless systems
• Consider: RTS-CTS for hidden terminal problem in 802.11
– rfid: T is not able to send a CTS in response to an RTS from R
In case multiple readers try to read
the same tag, the tag cannot
respond selectively to a particular
reader
32. TDMA based solution
• Assign different time slots and/or frequencies
to nearby readers
– Reduces to graph coloring problem (readers form
vertices)
• Only reader to reader interference
– Assign different operating frequencies
• Only multiple reader to tag interference
– Assign different time slots for operation
• Both types of interference
– First allot different time slots, then frequencies
33. Main Points
• Slowly becoming an industry standard
• Speeds up the supply chain process
• Easier to manage inventory
• Continually evolving
• Controversial technology
34. Questions for you….
• Define RFID technology?
• When was RFID introduced?
• What are two main reasons RFID is
controversial?
