technology > RFID

AR is a pioneer in the practical application of RFID Technology,
particularly in the security, authentication and tracking fields.
We have combined RFID with other identification and authentication technologies as well as communications and information system
to achieve state-of-the-art solutions.

Consulting
• •	Based on the AR approach, we analyze particular requirements and then we conceptualize practical "real life" RFID applications. AR's open-research policy allows us to consider and evaluate all applicable technologies including available frequencies and standards as well as hardware components

Frequencies, protocols and standards

•

Different applications, different frequencies…this is what it's all about. In the past few years, these concepts have been in constant debate in the effort to attain global standardization and though much has been achieved, diversity in performance and capabilities will always be there.

AR has the knowledge and open approach to properly choose the most effective and convenient specifications for each solution.

Hardware

Fixed desktop equipment, gate antennas and portable readers are some of the components we have integrated into our "Tested Solutions". This means fully operational equipment, out in the field.

AR's software engineering capabilities allow us to work with the most diverse platforms and programming languages in order to integrate everything from functional hardware components to complete solutions.

Software

•

Any RFID application’s hardware solution is useless without the proper software component.

Administration, data management, inventory controls and communications are necessary tools to properly manage any RFID solution and exploit its benefits.

AR has developed sub-modules for different specific functions and these modules are now an integral part of our RFID software solutions, readily available for integration into any application.

Certified RFID SCM

The RFIDSCM certification is provided by ISCEA (International Supply Chain Education Alliance) to individuals and organizations who have completed a profound "RFID Masters Training" and successfully pass the corresponding examinations and practical tests. This program is internationally recognized and provides individuals with exceptional skills and capabilities to analyze, design and implement RFID solutions.

“Our staff is certified by the ISCEA and our Clients benefit as a result of this practical and expert knowledge of all the possibilities relating to RFID applications.”

Handheld computer deployment for Secure Vehicle Resgistration (SVR)

In 2005 alone, more than 100 portable RFID reader devices were successfully deployed throughout Mexico, with great success. These were implemented using AR's SVR solution. The “Jett RFID” from Two Technologies Inc. and the “Silver Jet” from Datalogic were chosen for this program and are fully operational in the field today, providing excellent results.

NOKIA RFID Reader Phone

The Nokia Field Force Solution combines the RFID and GSM technologies in one small, robust device. Replacing manual reporting with mobile phones gives the field personnel greater access to information and enables them to quickly and accurately record, track, and transmit data. AR's research and development team is also working on the integration process of the Nokia RFID phone to our RFID solutions and we will be offering this technology in the 4th quarter of 2006.
