** Embedded RFID Services ** For organizations seeking to embed RFID directly into their products the SkyeTek Professional Services Team offers various design and integration services to guarantee quick and successfull RFID enabled products. Capabilities include: With programmable output power in 15 steps from 9dBm to 23dBm, the reader can detect tags at more than 2 mt of distance (depending on antenna and tag dimensions). Due to its low power consumption, the module is specifically designed to be easily integrated in battery powered devices as well as powered directly by a standard USB port. The radio frequency core of the module permits to achieve fast reading and to be used in dense reader and dense tag environments for top-class rated performances. The compactness of the device and the board-to-board connector allow to embed the R1230CB inside the new small form factor industrial handhelds, smartphone accessories, small USB dongles and other compact form factor devices. The R1230CB complies with and can operate in both European and US regulatory environments and due to its multiregional capabilities, it is ideal for integration in devices requiring compliance to different geographical regions.
 * Mercury5e RFID reader || Mercury5e (M5e) is the embedded version of the RFID core in ThingMagic's best-in-class Mercury5 UHF RFID reader. About the same size as a PCMCIA Type II PC card, this RFID reader module concentrates Mercury5's performance into a tiny package so you can design ThingMagic RFID into your own device. This RFID module is ideal for adding UHF RFID read/write capabilities to a wide range of devices, from high speed label printing to inline testing to mobile and handheld computers: [] ||
 * **SkyeModule M7** || The **SkyeModule M7**, is the world’s smallest, globally compliant UHF module for embedded RFID. Its one of-a-kind combination of high performance, security, and cost/space/power efficiency makes it the industry’s price per performance leader.

 * RFID HF bluetooth reader/writer || CF-RH350 reader is use for read different electronic tag and card, and sends the data to PDA, PC through Bluetooth wireless technology. It can detect 125 KHz, 134.2 KHz, 13.56 MHz IC card. ||
 * TOUCH SCREEN RFID TAG READER || The efficient incorporation of RFID circuitry within touch sensor panel circuitry is disclosed. The RFID antenna can be placed in the touch sensor panel, such that the touch sensor panel can now additionally function as an RFID transponder. No separate space-consuming RFID antenna is necessary. Loops (single or multiple) forming the loop antenna of the RFID circuit (for either reader or tag applications) can be formed from metal on the same layer as metal traces formed in the borders of a substrate. Forming loops from metal on the same layer as the metal traces are advantageous in that the loops can be formed during the same processing step as the metal traces, without requiring a separate metal layer. ||
 * **OEM UHF Multiregional Ultra Compact Reader** || The Quark (Model R1230CB), the new OEM reader of the easy2read© Family, is an UHF multiregional ultra compact reader for low-power, high performances UHF RFID applications.

An evaluation board (Mod. R1230CBEVB), which allows to manage the Quark via USB is available. In case customers want to replace directly with Quark reader others CAEN RFID OEM modules (i.e. A828, A828A, A528), the mod. R1230ADAT adapter board can be used. ||
 * = M3  integrated mobile computer = || M3 RFID has been specifically designed to meet increasing requirements in industrial and outdoor environments. Ideal for field service, retail, warehouse, manufacturing and public transportation applications, with a slim and rugged mobile computer with an integrated 13.56MHz High Frequency RFID reader. The reader supports all prevailing standard RFID tags(ISO14443 type A/B,15693 RFID). ||
 * UHF RFID and Barcode Wearable Hand Scanner || This handheld reader is designed to read and write EPC Class 1 Gen 2 (ISO18000-6C) tags and optionally read 1D and 2D barcodes. It is battery operated and communicates wirelessly with a host computer over a standard Bluetooth interface providing a versatile mobile handheld UHF RFID reader solution. The removable, rechargeable internal Lithium Polymer battery pack provides a long run time. The reader is designed for ergonomic back of hand use with a hand strap (removable for personalisation). Feedback can be provided to the user by the internal LEDs, buzzer and vibrator.

The handheld reader is compatible with devices running Windows Mobile 5/6, Windows CE, and Windows XP/Vista/7. (the host device must have Bluetooth functionality). The Bluetooth interface enables the operator to use the scanner up to 100m from the host computer. ||

The above was originally published November 5, 2010 at http://rfid.thingmagic.com/rfid-blog/bid/50212/RFID-for-Wander-Prevention A question posted to our Billions of Identities blog entry asked if there were solutions to track an elderly person living alone to determine if they are OK. The answer is yes, and here is some information on that topic that may be useful. For those of us who have had a family member or loved one suffer from Alzheimer's, or some other type of dementia, the experience can be painful for everyone involved. In addition to assistance form the most patient of healthcare professionals, solutions like the Companion anti-wandering system from RFID solutions provider Vuance can provide a new level of peace of mind. The Companion system includes a battery powered 433 MHz active RFID tag and motion detector embedded in a plastic wristband combined with a low-profile door alarm that contains an RFID reader and infrared emitter that creates an IR field across the doorway. The alarm device is powered by a 12 volt adapter and can be attached above a doorway to provide the desired area of coverage – about 4 feet. When a person wearing a Companion wristband moves into the IR field near a doorway an audible alarm is sounded, indicating that someone may be wandering outside of a desired area. While this system was initially designed for in-home care, Vuance intends to bring similar products to market for nursing homes and other facilities. In larger facilities, the intent is to create a network of RFID readers to monitor a greater number of individuals and doorways and even integrate with software to send text alerts or pages to specified staff members. Conceptually this same type of fully integrated system could extend to the home – providing location information, text or pager alerts, and maybe even video feeds to loved ones in remote locations to help care for our elderly family and friends.
