RF helps companies get RFID networks in place
that are building RFID networks in order to meet mandates and
deadlines.
The new developer's kit features the TAVIS Data Router and embedded auto-ID management software in order to enable speedy deployment. The TAVIS Data Router is self-contained device that enables the delivery of cost-effective, real-time auto-ID solutions, eliminating many of the complexities of RFID integration.
The system also features an embedded version of the company's award-winning TAVIS data management software and can manage multiple RFID readers from a variety of the industry's leading vendors.
RF Code believes that the TAVIS Data Router is a key component to achieving complete auto-ID installation, which may incorporate a full spectrum of technologies beyond passive EPC tags in the retail supply chain. The TAVIS-powered software platform enables developers to collect, consolidate and manage data from passive RFID as well as bar code, active RFID, Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS), mesh networks, remote sensors, and GPS systems.
The development of this technology comes in response to the growing demand for RFID solutions. All food manufacturers in Europe must now comply with tough new traceability laws, and this demand has obliged food manufacturers and suppliers to find means of achieving complete control of their supply chain.
The developer's kit for the TAVIS Data Router also includes two TAVIS software licenses & user's guides, one TAVIS Data Router, two training seats for classes at RF Code's Las Vegas learning centre, and RF demonstration software. The kit is designed to enable systems integrators and IT project mangers to quickly employ the functionality of TAVIS and design-advanced applications for evolutionary RFID networks.
RF Code says that it will provide the developer kits package to approved systems integrators and enterprise IT project teams for a limited time at $2995 (€2233). The kits are for pilot testing and evaluation only.
Supply chain safety has never been a bigger issue within the food industry, and this is not only due to the pressure on suppliers and manufacturers to meet current regulations. This was brought home in December, with the resignation of US secretary of health and human services Tommy Thompson.
His announcement featured a surprising assessment about the bioterrorist threat to the nation's food supply in which he stated that "for the life of me, I cannot understand why the terrorists have not, you know, attacked our food supply because it is so easy to do".
