RFIDEurope 2009
RFIDEurope 2009 takes place on 29 – 30 September in Cambridge.
The hot topics in RFID for 2009 include Real Time Locating Systems (RTLS), now in hundreds of locations and growing fast. Assets and people in hospitals are the latest major application and many different RTLS technologies are now competing.
Then there are Wireless Sensor Networks, otherwise known as Third Generation active RFID. These wireless mesh networks mimic the internet, being the first forms of RFID that are self organising and self healing. Hundreds of companies are now involved and the first killer application is under way – meter reading.
With ever wider deployment of active RFID, we address the need to progress from primary batteries to energy harvesting in all its forms.
Passive RFID remains the largest market by numbers but there are surprises even here; it may be that ten percent of money spent on the fastest growing part -UHF passive RFID - will involve on-metal and ruggedised versions where tag prices are at least ten times the price of basic UHF. Do passive tags with a display have a future for repricing shop goods at the touch of a button? Will apparel tagging not only continue to grow rapidly, but involve anti-counterfeiting, merchandising and other functions, not just reducing stockouts?
These and many other hot questions will be answered at this conference, with many end users in attendance.
Register here by 31st July to receive a discount of up to 25%.
