>>Metal mosquito net works just as fine for most purposes. We've seen a guy holding his ID in a metal box... and he was a cop, in uniform. Does he know something we don't? As our ID has a chip in it, not quite sure whether it's RFID or on close contact only - the readers are usually bundled with a printer, so the printout serves as a proof of identity. Which doesn't mean there can't be other, much smaller machines, capable of reading it. Since there are no metal contacts exposed, I guess it's some kind of RFID, allegedy with very short range, yeah right. And it's actually optional - I checked the other checkbox on the form and mine is electronics-free plastic.

>There are discusions how far a RFID (aka secondary RADAR) reader can work.This is a bit more tricky then just reading, because you need to transfer the energy to the tag first. It requires a lot of energy to be transmitted by microwaves. A far distance reader might be a bit of a microwave oven on close range. There was something about the energy and the distance and the square root. It will be not better if the tag is not perefectly aligned.

Now then it might be a good time to become a muslim. Grow a beard and wrap the women - much more work for facial recog algos...
