Abstract:
Various methods and apparatus embodiments involving RFID are disclosed. One method embodiment, among others, includes receiving an excitation signal at a rotary switch associated with a plurality of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags and a radio frequency (RF) masking material, and orienting the RF masking material with respect to all RFID tags such that a RFID tag is rendered detectable by a nearby RFID reader.

Claim (Index 1):
A method, comprising:\n sending an excitation signal to a switch affixed to an object, the switch comprising a plurality of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags and a radio frequency (RF) masking material configured to mask a portion of the plurality of RFID tags, the switch being configured to render at least one of the plurality of RFID tags detectable by rotating the RF masking material, each of the plurality of RFID tags of the switch being associated with a corresponding defined object state; detecting a response of the at least one detectable RFID tag; and interpreting the response of the at least one detectable RFID tag by determining the corresponding defined object state.
