Abstract
A radio frequency identification (RFID) transceiver may be associated with an identification proximity to identify an RFID tag associated with a component. A control may determine proper inflation of component based on the RFID tag being identified.
Claims20
A computing device comprising:
- a radio frequency identification (RFID) transceiver associated with an identification proximity, wherein the identification proximity is to enable the RFID transceiver to identify an RFID tag associated with a component installable at the computing device, wherein being identified is based on whether the RFID tag has been detected due to passing within the identification proximity, and the RFID tag is deemed as not being identified if not detected due to the RFID tag not passing within the identification proximity;
- and
- a controller to determine proper installation of the component based on the RFID tag being identified, such that detection is interpreted as proper installation regardless of type of information provided by the RFID tag and regardless of where the RFID tag is located within the identification proximity.
A computing system comprising:
- a radio frequency identification (RFID) transceiver associated with an identification proximity;
- a component installable at the computing system and associated with an RFID tag to be identified by the RFID transceiver based on the identification proximity and whether the RFID tag has been detected due to passing within the identification proximity, wherein the RFID tag is deemed as not being identified if not detected due to the RFID tag not passing within the identification proximity;
- and
- a controller to determine proper installation of the component based on the RFID tag being identified, such that detection is interpreted as proper installation regardless of type of information provided by the RFID tag and regardless of where the RFID tag is located within the identification proximity.

A method, comprising:
- identifying an RFID tag associated with a component installable at a computing device such that the RFID tag is detected as passing within an identification proximity of a radio frequency identification (RFID) transceiver, wherein the RFID tag is deemed as not being identified if not detected due to the RFID tag not passing within the identification proximity;
- determining, using a controller, proper installation of the component based on the RFID tag being identified, such that detection is interpreted as proper installation regardless of type of information provided by the RFID tag and regardless of where the RFID tag is located within the identification proximity.
