Memory Spot: HP's RFID Alternative
-- Howard Taub, VP and Associate Director, HP Labs
|
|
|
|
Abstract:
Hewlett-Packard's Memory Spot is an inexpensive, wireless, battery-free microchip that can store documents, audio files or video clips.
Similar to an RFID tag, a memory spot is smarter and more secure. A memory spot stores more than 250 times more data; transmits 20 times faster; and, to address privacy concerns, encrypts data.
Howard discusses the similarities and differences between HPs Memory Spot and an RFID tag.
About the presenter:
Howard Taub is vice president and associate director of HP Labs, responsible for managing the lab's investments in printing and imaging and its relationship with HP's Imaging and Printing Group. In addition, Howard contributes to overall strategic planning and management of HP Labs.
Previously, Howard was vice president and director of the Printing and Imaging Research Center at HP Labs, managing research programs in digital imaging, commercial printing and publishing, photofinishing, digital entertainment, printer system architecture, color science, displays and breakthrough personal storage devices. Under his leadership, the center established a long history of contribution to HP's businesses, including playing a central role in HP's move into commercial printing, providing core technology that enabled HP to enter the digital photography business and inventing the encoding scheme used in all DVD+RW optical drives.
Howard has worked at HP Labs for 27 years and, before that, at the IBM Watson Research Center and for Dataproducts Corporation. One of his early HP assignments was to manage the "ThinkJet" research project that invented HP's thermal inkjet technology and did the fundamental research to understand how these devices worked.
Howard earned his PhD in Solid State Physics from the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn in New York City. He is an inventor on more than 20 patents in the printing and imaging area.
