In the past, RFID components were developed and provided by major electronic-based manufacturers that needed the specialised resources inhouse, and were not well enough connected to the target markets or users, to make the technology a great success.
With the advent of low cost RFID such as that developed by Trolley Scan, it is now possible for almost any market service company to become a producer of low cost RFID in volumes sufficient to meet the needs of their prospective clients. (Approximately 3000 companies are in touch with Trolley Scan wanting to find suppliers of their low cost, low power passive RFID solution). By using the specialist skills of subcontractors, the 'new RFID suppliers' do not need to have extensive manufacturing facilities.
Trolley Scan licenses its technology to companies that wish to become 'the new RFID suppliers'. Licensing arrangements are very simple. Trolley Scan transfers to their licensees, the necessary designs via a comprehensive datapack. In March 2003, Trolley Scan updated its datapack to incorporate the results of its ongoing research and development programmes to further simplify the tasks of the 'new RFID supplier' and enhance the features of the products they will offer. The datapack has been updated to incorporate the latest developments in Trolley Scan's very low power EcoTag passive technology, digital receivers with 50 fold dynamic range, using conductive inks for low cost antenna manufacture, ISO card-sized UHF antenna systems, amongst others.
Trolley Scan continues to advance the technical developments of low cost RFID; particularly in performance, operating range, and in simplifying the manufacturing process. Licensees receive free updates of the datapacks to keep them up to date with developments.
Companies interested in becoming manufacturers of low cost RFID, and part of the group of the 'new RFID suppliers' targeting to meet the supply needs of their potential clients, can contact Trolley Scan to receive details of the datapack and licensing via the link below.
