Re: NetArm application...

I recall a few years ago seeing a program on plans for the space
station. One of the critical operating factors was knowing where
every single inventory item was at all times. An installed chip
was mentioned, though at the time, I'm sure it wasn't anything
as nifty as a NetArm arrangement. Put a NetArm chip into a circuit
to broadcast it's id and receivers in any particular area could take
the inventory of all NetArmed chips within reach.

Race cars are cool, too...

David,
>Basically, the store implants a NetArm chip into each isle that links
to all the items on each shelf in each isle throughout the store.>

Would this be a wireless connection back to the main computer? Also,
how would it link up to each item on the shelf?

Techless, George
