Doh uses RFID and Arduino to help you remember your wallet, continues search for the 'Any Key'

Doh uses RFID and Arduino to help you remember your wallet, continues search for the 'Any Key'

If you can dream it, Arduino can help you build it - perhaps with a dash of MakerBot thrown in for good measure. The latest homebrew project to hit the ol' inbox sounds an alarm whenever you leave a room without a registered item. Doh (named in Homer Simpson's honor, we presume), uses a trio of devices to track items that you usually travel with, like your keys or a cellphone. After you've assembled the rather complex contraption, you affix color-coded RFID tags to your gadgets, before registering them with the Arduino-based host.
