TORONTO, ONTARIO--(CCNMatthews - Sept. 30, 2004) -
Three new mobile RFID products introduced to address growing market demands
SIRIT Technologies Inc. a wholly-owned subsidiary of SIRIT Inc. (TSX:SI) and a leading provider of radio frequency identification (RFID) reader technology and Data Ltd Inc., a nationally recognized data collection solutions provider and manufacturer have teamed up to introduce three new mobile RFID solutions.
These new RFID solutions include:
- RFID-enabled HHP Dolphin(R) 9500 and 9550 mobile computers - Each of these units is capable of reading both 1D and 2D bar code symbologies, as well as providing signature capture and photo taking capabilities. With the addition of a LF (125 kHz/134.2 kHz), HF (13.56 MHz) and/or UHF (902-928 MHz) SIRIT RFID reader module, the Dolphin 9500/9550 extends its broad reach into every area of automatic data collection. These products are the only handheld, RFID-enabled terminals capable of meeting recent aviation industry guidelines.
- Forklift mount RFID Reader and Industrial Computer - This Data Ltd-engineered solution incorporates either a Data Ltd 900-wifi(R) (UHF reader with 802.11b radio) or 900-bt(R) (UHF reader with Bluetooth(R) connection) RFID module and is built around SIRIT's ST 200 Multi-Protocol UHF RFID Reader Module. The combination of the 900-wifi or 900-bt with Data Ltd's MPX 8200 Industrial Computer is capable of supporting multiple EPCglobal(R) RFID tag protocols at read ranges in excess of 6 feet.
- Wearable RFID Reader - This belted, wearable RFID reader provides hands free UHF RFID read capabilities using SIRIT's ST 200 Multi-Protocol UHF RFID Reader Module and connects via Bluetooth(R) to virtually any handheld terminal. Operating as a passive, automatic data collection device this device allows the operator to use both hands in applications that include picking/sorting, direct store delivery, and manufacturing operations.
"Our goal is to develop a line of RFID solutions built around the specific needs of our customers and to do so in a timely manner," says Bryan Wesolek, President and CEO, Data Ltd Inc. "By integrating proven RFID technologies from SIRIT, we are able to quickly develop solutions that are as affordable as they are robust. The results are fully integrated, wireless data collection solutions that extend anywhere RFID is needed."
"It is clear that RFID has a broad application across many channels and industries. SIRIT is delighted to have our RFID technology integrated into a diverse range of products like those offered by Data Ltd," said William Staudt, CEO, SIRIT Inc. "By partnering with integrators and OEMs, SIRIT readers are the components that enable the rapid deployment of innovative products."
Each of these Data Ltd RFID solutions is being showcased at the EPCglobal U.S. Conference in Baltimore (September 28 - 30, 2004) Booth #300 and each is now in production.
