DartMail


DartMail lets people physically shoot electronic information at others. 

 

The head of the Dart contains an RFID tag. By waving the tag over the reader, the 'shooter' can attach a handle to any electronic file (located in a shared file system) to the dart. After being shot, the victim can pass the dart over his or her reader (although invariable this is a guy's thing), and see the file on the screen.

 

Weird, but what can I say.
