Football, beer and RFID makes for an exciting Super Bowl party

Friday, February 4, 2011

During this Sunday’s Super Bowl event, the Bud Light Hotel in Dallas will feature an RFID application on Facebook Platform that enables guests to share their experiences with friends by swiping RFID-enabled wristbands at kiosks.

The service will allow guests to use a Facebook application to sync their accounts with the RFID-enabled token.

And by scanning their token at an RFID reader, guests can automatically post their activities to their profile pages without using a computer or mobile device.

Guests can take and publish pictures directly to their news feed with one swipe of the RFID bracelet at kiosks. If a group of friends takes a picture at a kiosk, they can each swipe their RFID wristband and publish the pictures to their individual Facebook profiles as well. [end]
