Week 5 Input/Output

I think that this lecture was very interesting and could be incorporated into my idea of the SportSensor very easily. With the use of RFID technology you can track where anything is. With the use of an RFID chip I can track homeruns, goals and touchdowns without a doubt. RFID uses radio waves to transmit the identity of an object or person wirelessly. The best part of this is that the microchip is typically less than half a millimeter in size so it won't make a difference in how a ball is pitched, how hard a puck is hit or a pass thrown. With the RFID technology you can also have an alarm when the ball/puck crosses a certain point. (homerun, goal line, net) If RFID technology proves to be secure in the future and develops into a reliable resource there is no doubt that the SportSensor will work very well.
