Nabaztag rabbits and RFID

Posted in Nabaztag on December 7, 2007 at 9:57 am

I just read the ITPro newsletter from Maggie Holland, where she talks about a press briefing with the creaters of the ‘rabbits’.

Maggie says she saw a demonstration of the rabbits using their RFID to ’sniff’ out a book. Once the book is recognised, the rabbit reads the book out load. I am really looking forward to seeing what else they can do with RFID tags, as the idea of the rabbit being able to recognise the book is great, but I don’t think I could listen to my rabbit read a whole book. It’s a fit like listening to a 6 year old read. Very cute, but if they read a whole book to you, you’d only understand about 60% of it.

I think I may also have a look at developing applications for the nabaztag, but we’ll wait and see on that one!

I read Maggie’s feature in the newsletter too and your previous post on the Nabaztag rabbit. I must admit that this little pesky rabbit is really starting to tickle my gadgety geeky interest. I was even browsing their website earlier today looking for online stockists. I managed to stop short of clicking on amazon’s ever so tempting 1-click buy button.

I am trying to be strong - I really am - but I feel I may very soon succumb to its charms - especially as I keep hearing a little voice in my head telling me it’s nearly christmas so time for a treat!
