Summary of Innovation
RF Controls' CS Smart Antenna Technology is the source of RTLS data which is filtered and customized from the RFC Operating System. It is an essential component to delivering hands-free, continuous, 3D location of RAIN RFID (Passive UHF) tagged assets.
Innovation Statement
The CS Smart Antennas stand alone in the market in terms of speed, distance and accuracy. Whether tracking forklifts in motion, assets at the dock door, or tools on the manufacturing floor, RF Controls Antennas interrogate Rain RFID tags every 20ms delivering the speed to track in real-time. They operate in ceiling heights once thought impossible; up to 50 feet from the floor. This distance is over 3 times the performance of any competition in the market while providing pin-point location accuracy of 1-3 feet.
Applicability
RFID has never been more affordable as tag prices are now as little as $0.03/tag. Tagging everything is no longer just an option but has become mandatory in many Manufacturing, Logistics and Retail operations. Tracking tagged assets has been limited to handhelds and portals in the past which provide a mere snapshot of data that is instantly obsolete. RTLS allows you to know where everything is in real-time. The RF Controls CS Smart Antenna Technology is the only overhead solution in the world that can operate in ceiling heights from 10 to 50 feet.
