Abstract
A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag according to one embodiment includes a controller, a sensor in communication with the controller, a local power source for providing power to the controller, and a user input device for receiving manual input from a user. A function is selectable by manipulation of the user input device. An RFID tag according to another embodiment of the present invention includes a controller having activate circuitry, the activate circuitry being for detecting a valid activate command in an incoming signal and causing the tag to wake from a hibernate state. An electronic display device is in communication with the controller. A local power source provides power to the controller. A user input device receives manual input from a user. The tag is normally in a hibernate state. Manipulation of the user input device wakes the tag from the hibernate state and/or allows function selection.
