Active RFID over WLAN

LocAir implements a RFID transaction over the WLAN spectrum and interacts with Access Points (AP) with RFID support, giving reliable, error-free communication. With an internal power source, LocAir transmits at higher power levels than passive tags, allowing it to be more robust in difficult environments and transmit at longer distances.

 

Advanced Power Management

The main requirement of Active RFID devices is power management. LocAir works without an external power source, and solely on battery. The product provides the longest battery life by using a patent-pending technique of controlling power to the wireless LAN.

 

Low Cost - Easy to Deploy

Easy to deploy—with a life of up to 3 years from a 480mAH Li-Ion cell—LocAir is one of the lowest cost RFID solutions around. LocAir leverages commercial off-the-shelf wireless Access Points instead of forcing you to use proprietary RFID readers—further pushing down deployment costs.

 

Diverse Applications

Today, RFID has diverse commercial applications. It is deployed in enterprise supply chain management to improve the efficiency of inventory tracking and management, public transportation systems, product tracking as a replacement for barcode tags (library books, airline baggage, etc), transportation and logistics, inventory systems in supermarkets, RFID mandates, race timing, Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) tags in Automatic Toll Collection systems, Smart Card based identification, etc.
