Abstract
An object identification device includes a visual indicator, an RFID module, and an NFC assembly. The RFID module includes identification data. The RFID module harvests power from an electromagnetic field and may continuously direct that power to the visual indicator upon reception of a command conveyed by the electromagnetic field. The NFC assembly includes data associated with the identification data included in the RFID module. The NFC assembly may transmit the data included therein to a consumer communication device having NFC capabilities.
