Abstract
A radio frequency identification (RFID) enabled mirror includes a mirror comprising a reflective layer. The reflective layer comprises at least one layer of a metallic material. At least one portion of the reflective layer is removed to form a booster antenna from a remaining portion of the reflective layer. A dielectric coating is applied to the mirror where the reflective layer was removed. The RFID-enabled mirror further includes an RFID chip coupled to the booster antenna.
Claims22
A method for forming at least one antenna for a radio frequency identified (RFID) enabled mirror, comprising:
- depositing a reflective layer on a substrate;
- selectively removing at least a portion of the reflective layer to form the at least one antenna;
- and
- applying a dielectric coating to the substrate to replace the removed at least a portion of the reflective layer.
A method for forming at least one antenna for a radio frequency identified (RFID) enabled mirror, comprising:
- depositing a reflective layer on a substrate, the reflective layer comprises a dielectric coating;
- selectively removing at least a portion of the reflective layer corresponding to the at least one antenna;
- and
- depositing a metallic material where the at least a first portion was removed to form the at least one antenna.
