Intermec Introduces RFID Software

Intermec has announced its Advanced RFID Extensions (ARX) software. The software discriminates the tags of interest from the surrounding tags in the area. This feature enables customers to achieve improved speed and accuracy with tracking any article movement activity by reducing false-positive reporting.

Since RFID readers indiscriminately read all activated tags, the presence of stray tags, like those that pass through a nearby portal or are stationary on nearby racks or pallets, complicate the identification of the tags of interest versus those that are not part of the process in action.

With ARX, the company’s RFID readers offer advanced motion data about each activated tag through a combination of hardware and software innovation. Through advanced artificial intelligence and data mining techniques, the software analyzes low-level information from RFID readers.

The fully analyzed results are made available to end applications through easy-to-use EPCglobal Low Level Reader Protocol extensions.
