Based on Phidgets RFID Interface, the Phidget Server and some Frontend made in Flash I have built a nice Car Configurator Interface.
The main idea was, to improve the users experience concerning haptics and recognition of materials and colors involved in the configuration process of a car by giving them the opportunity to change e.g. the color by dragging a RFID tagged and painted item over a hotspot to change the cars color. Due to the fact that the user actually saw the real paint before, makes it easier to experience the same color on the rotateable 3D-model of the car.
