Abstract

In some implementations, a computer system may initiate a method comprising: the method comprising: initiating communication between a tag and a reader; initiating a first program; determining a communication time period by starting a timer when the tag and the reader are within a communication range and stopping the timer when the tag and the reader are no longer within the communication range; comparing the communication time period to a first threshold time period; and when the communication time is greater than the first threshold time period, initiating a second program different from the first program.
