Rush Tracking Systems, RFID Journal and RFID Alliance Lab to host Webinar on RFID Tag Performance
On Wednesday, June 29th from 1pm to 2pm CDT, Rush Tracking Systems, a Kansas City based RFID implementer will host a webinar on RFID tag performance with the University of Kansas’s Information and Telecommunication Technology Center (www.ITTC.KU.edu) and RFID Journal (www.RFIDJournal.com), a leading media company
Kansas City, KS (PRWEB) June 26, 2005 -- The RFID Alliance Lab was launched at the University of Kansas in 2004 to provide testing and benchmarking of RFID and EPC products. The Lab is a nonprofit entity and is completely objective. Its tests are done in controlled conditions and are scientifically repeatable. This ensures that differences in performance are due solely to the differences in the equipment. These tests are supplemented by real-world tests to show how equipment will likely perform in your environment.
In this Webinar, Daniel Deavours, PhD., Research Director for the Lab, and Toby Rush, President of Rush Tracking Systems, who advises the lab, will discuss the results of the Lab's tests and what they mean for end users. Participants in this Webinar will learn:
•Difference in performance characteristics of class 0 and Class 1 tags and how to design systems to cope with these differences.
•Why tags perform poorly around metal and water.
•How to overcome problems tagging products with water and metal.
•How to choose the appropriate tag for your products.
•Difference in performance of tags of the same make and model.
•How to design systems to compensate for the variation in performance.
•Rates of dead or quiet tags from different vendors.
•How to choose the best overall tags for your needs.
“Right now, hundreds of companies are purchasing tags and readers and performing the same tests to determine which tags and readers will work with their products. This is time consuming and wastes resources,” says Mark Roberti, founder and editor of RFID Journal.
“Information is power. The RFID Alliance Lab is equipping end users and system integrators with the information they need to make educated decisions faster, with less risk,” says Toby Rush.
Join Rush Tracking Systems, the RFID Alliance Lab and the RFID Journal for this insightful and educational webinar. More information can be found at http://RFIDJournal.webex.com.
