  4. Applications • Loss Prevention Controls • Accelerated Inventory Counts • Automated Inventory Reconciliation • Anti-Counterfeiting Controls • Customer Self-Checkout • Increased Transaction Speed at Point of Sale • Returns Fraud Control • Product Merchandising • Tracks Perishable Goods

  5. Auto Data Capture Application smartEAS tackles the Inventory Nightmare Speeds the count Improves Accuracy

  6. Computer Computer Memory Memory Radio Radio Power Power What Is RFID? Radio Frequency Identification… A sophisticated computing and communications device Reader with Antenna RFID Tag RF To Computer Host …A portable database …A wireless extension of Information Systems …no relation to swept-RF EAS

  7. No line of sight required.Tag can be hidden High storage capacity Secure information Increased read range capability Write/update capability Multiple item identification Resistance to harsh/dirty environments Benefits of RFID

  8. A visit to IBM's Watson labs changed our course Retail requirements drove architecture High data rate/capacity…inventory control Small form factor…RFID labels and readers Easier and cheaper to manufacture Read–write ability unlocks the power of RFID 2450 MHz…best Solution By Far Performance, small size, and functionality
