In order for the users to find objects more efficiently, {{UBIK}} can mark some objects with [[#Technical_background|certain properties]]. Whenever a user scans a RFID tag, the resulting ID value can be used to find all matching objects, namely objects that have the right property.
== Configurable start screen RFID button ==
 
In order to use this feature, an RFID scanning entry point is provided using a [[HowTo:Configure_Start_Screen_Content#Buttons|configurable start start screen button]] for it.
The following xml shows an example start screen configuration including RFID scanning entry point:
 
<source lang="xml">
<StartScreenConfiguration>
<Tab caption="Content">
<ContentBrowserButton caption="Content Browser"/>
<RFIDScanButton caption="RFID Scan" />
</Tab>
</StartScreenConfiguration>
</source>
== Searching for objects ==
Once the objects are found, they are displayed in a list. The users can then browse to any of the objects for more information by clicking on the objects.
# During the search, the list might show a searching text before any objects are found;<br/>[[File:Scanned_searching.jpg|420 px|border|alt=Searching for Objects|Searching for Objects]]
# If any objects are found, they will be added to the list;<br/>[[File:Scanned_search_result.jpg|420 px|border|alt=Displaying Objects|Displaying Objects]]
# If no objects are found, the list will show a corresponding text.<br/>[[File:Scanned_no_result.jpg|420 px|border|alt=No corresponding Objects|No corresponding Objects]]
