In every day life, thousands of objects are fabricated, thousands of objects enter and exit warehouses, thousands of objects are sold in supermarkets. For a good quality of service, these places have to supervise every object, anytime and anywhere, during the passage of the object through theirs environments. So, the necessity of a smart object, that possesses a unique identifier, contains information about itself, could take care of itself and that communicate with the environment in which it is, using specialized services, has arrived. In this article we demonstrate the concept of a smart object, created using RFID and UPnP technologies.
