Description: 

It’s not just about tags! It’s about the tag-to-reader interaction, and then how you manage and exploit the data being collected. Your choice in architecting an infrastructure is fundamental toward meeting performance requirements and has profound implications on the cost of visibility solutions.

Years ago we heard about self-healing readers, software radios and much more. In RFID today there are a mind boggling array of choices widely varying in price, performance, packaging and the fit in meeting customer requirements. The days of the simple reader appliance for portal entry are long gone. Instead there are embedded readers for printers, handhelds and other subsystems, and wide area readers that look to be disruptive greatly broadening the visibility footprint for battery less RFID solutions.

We’ve hit an inflection point of dramatically greater adoption of passive RFID solutions for retail apparel, asset management and more.

Please join us to discuss the latest developments about ubiquitous visibility solutions.
