Working with RFID
At the present time RFID is a 'buzz-word' and many companies are considering the use of RFID. According the Gartner Research Institute the hype is now in the 'trough of disillusionment' phase. However in many applications it is difficult to produce a Return On Investment in advance due to the lack of information and understanding. This may cause delays in acceptance and implementation. Many companies are willing and interested to use RFID, but do not know where to start. Lack of information, education and reliable information is one of the reasons the market is not more application driven.
Any RFID system integration starts with an assessment of the application. This is where UKCoding Ltd can help you; by supplying education, information, support and equipment - even consultancy.
RFID Proof of Concept
Try the RFID experience yourself
The Principle; With the supplied rental RFID-kit you will be able to test your application yourself. Try the RFID transponders on your products; experience the value of out-of-sight identification. Explore the opportunities within your own organisation. Do the ultimate Proof of Concept!
The System; Depending on the application and the advice we can give you, a RFID trial system will be made available to you. This system contains a RFID reader unit, with integrated antenna or separate antenna, some basic software for use on a standard PC along with RFID transponders. The transponders are considered as consumables, and are not part of the rental but need to be purchased in batches of 50 units.
System Design
The added value of RFID is mainly "detection of presence"- but that is not the key- it is what to do with the information. Integration with the back-office system is essential. Connectivity to middleware systems enables data collection, management, monitoring, filtering and reconciliation. A complete RFID middleware offering should be able to transform data from all types of AIDC input technologies, including RFID, bar code, GPRS and sensors and route it to any network/application. UKCoding Ltd has the capacity, and the contacts, to help you with a complete system design, (field)testing, implementing and supporting the solution.
