The ITU Strategy and Policy Unit Newslog reports on a tasty use of RFID technology:
"Pintokona, a Sushi restaurant in a trendy new part of Tokyo, Roppongi Hills, has introduced RFID tags to track and price their plates of sushi that are presented to on a rotating belt in front of customers. The system facilitates the calculation of the bill, as each tag contains information such as price, sushi type, chef, time stamp and other information. As readers can track the precise time when the sushi is placed on the plates, once a thirty-minute period has expired, the sushi is automatically removed from the rotating belt, in order to ensure that only the freshest pieces are made available."
