Omron RFID has announced the V750 reader platform, an expansion of its EPC UHF reader product line. The new V750 reader platform, designed and manufactured by Omron, will support global frequency bands for the United States (915MHz), Europe (866MHz) and Japan (953MHz). The reader platform enables high performance EPC Gen2 reading/writing and it features easy set up, advanced diagnostics, self execution and RF environmental monitoring functions.

The V750 runs on a light real-time operating system (RTOS) that delivers consistent, repeatable performance to meet high-line speed and I/O requirements for supply chain as well as packaging and manufacturing operations. For example, the V750 has an "optimized" implementation for tag density self adjustment which improves actual read times required for applications that have frequent changes to the number of tags being read.

This new platform supports Omron's recently announced electronic control antenna technology that provides direction of tag travel and eliminates "null points" in the read zone to achieve significant improvement for RFID tag read reliability.
