HTPC Control via RFID

Sometimes a man’s quest to "scratch an itch" leads to great things.  Other times the novelty just fizzles after time.  I’m not sure what to think about using RFID coasters to control your HTPC but I can’t help but feel that there is some potential for this beyond just "scratching the developer’s itch".

 

For this project I attempted to change how I interact with my music and HTPC. Using RFID tags and photo frame coasters I am attempting to simplify the interface to my music.
