Undergraduate: RFID Ubiquitous Body Sensing

Advisor: Prof. Swarun Kumar, Carnegie Mellon University
Brief description: We introduce RF-Wear, an accurate and wearable solution to track movements of a user’s body using passive RFIDs embedded in their clothing. RF-Wear processes wireless signals reflected off these tags to a compact single-antenna RFID reader in the user’s pocket. In doing so, RF-Wear enables a first-of-its-kind body-frame tracking mechanism that is lightweight and convenient for day-to-day use, without relying on external infrastructure. We implemented and evaluated RF-Wear on commercial RFID readers and tags and demonstrate its performance in body-frame tracking.
