Submission + - RFID Chips In School Uniforms
blurker writes: According to this Information Week article, a school in the UK is testing a student-tracking system based on RFID chips implanted in their uniforms:
Ten schoolchildren in the United Kingdom are being tracked by RFID chips in their school uniforms as part of a pilot program.
If the program proves successful as a way to hasten registration, simplify data entry for the school's behavioral reporting system, and ensure attendance, Trevor Darnborough, whose company, Darnbro, filed for a patent on securing RFID tags to clothing, hopes other schools will be interested, according to the Doncaster Free Press.
