Orizin Technologies, an RFID technology solution provider, has launched a new small and cost-effective active RFID tag. Today, there are millions of assets which are untraceable and whose locations need to be tracked. Tracking of an asset proves to be even more beneficial when an asset contributing highly to the overall revenue has gone missing. The concern is not always the cost of the asset but the cost of not knowing where the asset is located in an endeavour to use it efficiently.
Active RFID tags are used to track assets over long-range. They have their own internal power source and are more effective in RF challenged environments. The new tag as launched by Orizin has read-range of 20m, is of dimension 26mm*23mm*7.3mm and is priced at $8 for more than 5k quantity.
These tags have wider applications and can be extensively used to tag assets like laptops, servers, routers, switches, vehicles and others in industries like defence, IT, healthcare, manufacturing and others.
Suresh Rao, CTO, Orizin Technologies, says, “The optimum size, range and cost are the result of more than 18 months of R&D effort, which has gone into the development of our active RFID Tags and Readers. We will continue to invest in developing solutions that the markets demand".
Orizin has also developed active tags with tamper proof mechanism for tracking and security of jewellery and other high value items.
