Wi-Fi-based System-on-a-Chip RFID
G2 Microsystems has introduced a Wi-Fi based System-on-a-Chip RFID solution. This is an ultra low power, active radio frequency identification (RFID) System-on-a-Chip (SoC). It uses the widely used Wi-Fi network infrastructure.
G2 claims that its radical solution will reduce cost of ownership by at least a 75 percent. This will be a big incentive for companies to install asset-tracking systems. Industries that can benefit include the hospitals and container transportation. Wi-Fi based System-on-a-Chip RFID also has applications in the fast growing 'Mobile resource management' market. 'Mobile resource management' uses real-time location systems (RTLS) to track and monitor assets both inside and outside.
