Systems and Methods for Displaying, Storing, and Providing Information Regarding Objects

A system for displaying at least one provided object and for providing an information regarding each object, the system comprising:

• a frame having a first conductor;
• a support having a second conductor;
• a reader;
• and
• at least one tag, each tag having a respective first terminal, each tag mechanically coupled to a respective object of the at least one object, and each tag stores the information regarding the respective object to which the tag is coupled;
• wherein:
• the frame comprises a plurality of discrete mounting locations;
• the support removeably couples to the frame at a discrete mounting location of the plurality of discrete mounting locations;
• the at least one object is removeably positioned on the support;
• the reader contacts and electrically couples to at least one of the first conductor and the second conductor;
• while the support is coupled to the frame, the second conductor contacts and electrically couples to the first conductor;
• while the at least one object is positioned on the support:
• the second conductor contacts and electrically couples to the first terminal of each tag;
• the reader bidirectionally communicates with each tag through at least one of the first conductor and the second conductor thereby receiving the information from each tag respectively.

A system for holding at least one provided object and for providing an information regarding each held object, the system comprising:

• a container that encloses the at least one object inside the container, the container having a first conductor;
• a reader;
• and
• at least one tag, each tag having a respective first terminal, each tag mechanically coupled to a respective object of the at least one object, and each tag stores the information regarding the respective object to which the tag is coupled;
• wherein:
• the reader electrically couples to a first portion of the first conductor;
• while the at least one object is enclosed inside the container:
• a second portion of the first conductor contacts and electrically couples to the first terminal of each tag respectively of each object;
• each tag modulates a carrier provided to the first conductor in accordance with its respective information thereby producing a modulated carrier;
• and
• the reader receives the modulated carrier thereby receiving the information from each tag respectively;
• and
• the reader does not send information to any tag.
