Acessibilidade no setor varejista utilizando RFID e Beacons

The electronic tags have increasingly been used to store product information, allowing automatic identification, product tracking, stock control and much more applications. Putting together RFID clothes tags and the Beacon technology (used to locate a client using a Smartphone) it is possible to improve client access to product information in a department store, mainly if the client has a visual disability. In this context, the following project proposes a system which incorporates RFID tags and the Beacon technology altogether with a Smartphone app as a way to promote accessibility in department stores. That way, the client visually impaired can make use of a Smartphone with this app to receive indications of where a certain item can be found in the store alongside with the RFID tags data which will be sonorously dictated to the client.
