RFID-radar on track to start delivering systems

8 February 2006 News

RFID-radar is a new technology that was developed by Pretoria-based Trolley Scan at the beginning of August last year. It allows a computer network to identify and locate continuously and with high accuracy, many cheap transponders in a zone.

The company has now announced that it has developed a package of an RFID-radar system with supporting transponders and software that it will now be able to start supplying. This is the 'prototype' version, which offers the same performance of the 'future versions', but uses more expensive parts than those that will be used in the commercial versions. It also only has computing capabilities for a limited number of transponders being processed simultaneously.

Trolley Scan has created a web page at www.rfid-radar.com/eval/index.html which describes the system and performance.

RFID-radar, with its accurate location and tracking ability, brings about a new class of applications. The company recommends that before new users try RFID-radar, they first become familiar with long range UHF RFID such as the company's standard small systems.
