SkyeTek's RFID Reader Technology enables Consumable Authentication

SkyeTek, Inc., the developer of ReaderWarehas tasted success with enthusiastic market adoption of its consumables authentication solution. This solutions helps companies in healthcare and other industries prevent counterfeiting of branded consumables. It ensures that the products their customers buy and use meet the original manufacturer's standards for quality and safety.

Here's how it works: First, the manufacturer tags consumables that interface with the product, with a passive RFID tag that is read and authenticated by a reader embedded in the product. Thus the reader does accept counterfeits because they lack an authenticated tag, and reused consumables are recognized by the reader as having been previously used.
