| Barco Completed the Development of RFID Reader for UHF Band Barco has completed the development of RFID reader for UHF band. RFID reader is capable to connect up to 8 antennas and with superior system it communicates wirelessly using a standard WiFi network. Part of the RFID project was the development of special ultra-thin modular planar antennas for automatic identification of objects in the interior or in an industrial environment. These antennas have a variable length of 50-100 cm and a thickness of only 2 mm, making them ideal for creating RFID reading zones for asset tracking applications in doors, entrances, hallways, tracking in manufacturing on conveyor belts or IT equipment tracking in rack cabinets. The concept of RFID reader, its small size, built-in power supply and wireless data transfer via Wi-Fi network with unique antennas features and dimensions allow creating large-scale RFID systems with tens to hundreds of reading places with minimal cabling. Due to the size of antennas the reading zones may be optimally adapted to the application situation and the installation can be almost invisible and elegant. This project was funded with support from the state budget through the Ministry of Industry and Trade. write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Computing News :: home page |
