Image from "Smart watch system could help busy, forgetful people keep track of necessities"
 
Daniel Harrill
How the UW's prototype smart watch system works: A radio frequency identification (RFID) reader (1) senses the tags attached to important items (2) and relays that information to the personal server (3), carried in a pocket. The server checks to see if anything has been forgotten, then decides whether to alert the user by sending a prompt to the wristwatch (4).
