Radio Frequency Identification Technology for Logistics, Tagging and EPC

Glass-mount RFID tag supports automatic vehicle tracking

Thursday, September 22, 2011

DAILY RFID has launched a new ultra-high frequency RFID tag designed for installation on any glass surface including a car windshield for applications in automated vehicle identification.

Operating over a frequency range of 902 MHz to 928 MHz or 688 MHz, the windshield tag supports ISO 1800-6B or EPC Gen2 protocols and offers accurate detection with a reading distance of up to 15 meters.


The chip also comes in sealed in an ABS housing material, which is compliant and stable enough to endure harsh environments with temperatures ranging anywhere from -20 to 70 degrees Celsius (-4 to 122 Fahrenheit). It comes in a standard color of white, or it can be customized with a printed logo on the tag.

Thus, the windshield tag is suitable for access control applications such as gated communities, secured parking plazas or anywhere vehicle tracking is required. [end] 

Yellowknife Airport (YZF) located in Northwest Territories, Canada is using an integrated RFID solution provided by TagMaster for hands-free shuttle and maintenance vehicle access.

In conjunction with ACTS (Access Control Tracking System) Essential, powered by ArmID, the RFID solution enables YZF to add vehicles and activate tags, deactivate lost or stolen tags, open gates remotely, manage access schedules, and generate reports, all from a Web-enabled interface using any standard Web browser.

India recently opened its first RFID-based electronic toll collection (ETC) plaza at Chandimandir in Haryana’s Panchkula district.

The technology enables road users to make toll payments without stopping at the plaza and, in turn, reduce traffic congestion and commuting time. With the new electronic system, toll statements can also be obtained online so that users that need a receipt do not have to stop at the toll plaza.

Dear sir,

I read your article named as "Glass-mount RFID tag supports automatic vehicle tracking". It's pretty good in automatic vehicle tracking. But I have some doubts

  1. In this article, nothing to mentioned about the high speed of data rate .
  2. I think there is a writing mistake, instead of ISO 1800-6B you have to mention ISO-18000-6B or 6C.
  3. I am really wondering about the read range of 15 meters in ABS material. There is a some absorption by the plastic material it's depends on material thickness, di-electric const and the material density.

Regards, Pramod
