Radio Frequency Tags
Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory are developing miniature radio frequency tags that are ideal for rapid, remote inventory tracking, and for monitoring a wide variety of items, including people and pelicansanimals. A few examples of how these tags are being integrated into everyday commerce include:
- Supply chain management— tracking parts and goods from birth to death in the global market
- Asset management—monitoring the location and availability of inventory, tools, vehicles, personnel and other high-value assets at a given location
- Security—controlling entry, authenticating transactions, wireless alarms, critical interlocks, etc.
- Consumer products—wireless links to appliances, alarms, automobiles, thermostats, entertainment centers and more.
With more than ten years of experience and a broad range of expertise, Pacific Northwest's Electronic Systems Group offers three types of RF tags in its suite of available technologies.
In addition to offering the basic identification general features and benefits for different applications, we also can customize our tag systems to meet your specific needs.
