Due to increased exports and diminishing cattle supply, the demand for source and age verified cattle are constantly growing, according to the Cattle Network. With that in mind, producers who wish to continue making money are faced with the dilemma of a need for method of verifying their cattle so that they can continue to remain in business.

The folks at AngusSource have developed a solution that will allow you to do just that. It’s Process Verified Program (PVP), Gateway that offers producers the ability to verify only the source and age of their calves.

Aspen Skiing plans to expand its deployment of radio frequency identification technology by embedding RFID in all daily lift tickets on is four Colorado mountain resorts, according to Computer World.

Last winter Aspen Skiing implemented RFID tags in its customers’ season passes and installed automated access gates at the resorts to streamline and enhance customers’ experience.

Sirit, along with Axiompas, have successfully installed and integrated the first Electronic Vehicle Registration system in Latin America.

Sirit’s IDentity 5100 and lane controller technology read the National Public Vehicle Registry tags, while cameras capture an image of the license plate. The data is then transmitted to a central database which matches the data to vehicles of interest, enabling enforcement agencies to recognize identified vehicles on a watch list and take appropriate action.

The EVR system represents a continuation of the initiative by the Mexican government to enhance security and safety on roads across the country. This follows the initial inauguration by Mexican President Felipe Calderon back in June 2009. To date, forty-two lanes have been installed by Axiompass and are fully operational.  

Eriginate Corporation’s eTattoo tag has been approved by the United States Department of Agriculture for use in cattle management.

eTattoo is a panel-style tag that incorporates both visual and electronic identification, enabling management information to be printed on the tag, removing the need for separate visual and RFID tags.

A new RFID tag device being developed by SenoRx, a company that is exclusively focused on breast cancer intervention, could soon be the next innovative product in women’s oncological needs.

According to CNN, breast cancer is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer among women and SenoRx announced that it was conducting research for a new RFID tag and accompanying handheld reader which the company believes may help in lesion localization.

RFIDSpan Technology, developer of RFID antenna networking and distributing technology, announced the launch of its iReader-980.

The UFH Gen 2 Smart RFID reader is geared towards tracking real-time assets that need a large number of antennas read points. It can access hundreds of antenna–up to 256–within a given region.

DAILY RFID has launched a 2.4GHz active RFID reader DL3800, designed to provide long read range up to 100m.

With rapid tag processing, the 2.4GHz active RFID reader has the ability to detect multiple tags within a region of 100 meters at the same time. Automatically receiving information from active tags, it may also read and write configuration and user data to the tags.

GAO RFID presents its passive Gen 2 RFID tag designed as a hang-tag for applications where tag reusability is not required. This RFID tag, model 116402, made for tracking items in rigorous environments such as the industrial electrophoretic painting processes used in the automotive industry.

Brazilian company, Ceitec, has announced that its RFID devices are the first to be entirely designed in that country.

This accomplishment marks a significant step in expanding the country’s domestic microelectronics industry. Dependence on semiconductor imports is decreased and opportunities become available for some of the country’s top engineers.

The developers at Codeninja have invented a device which can be aimed at RFID tags, and even USB flash drives, to permanently deactivate and destroy their data.

The gun was fabricated using a Nerf N-Strike Recon CS-6, with a 0.6 kilojoule camera flash driving a 50-turn copper spool. Just for laughs and giggles, this RFID killer was equipped with a 2 watt, 4-track MP3 player to produce the sounds of destruction that occur when your precious data is erased.
