New page

This is where I will put all the information regarding RFIDs

1. Bought low frequency rfid evaluation kit from Texas Instrument fro $284.

> Zhipu and I did some basic tests with the low frequency rfids. We were
interested in determining the max. velocity of the tags relative to the
readers beyond which the reader will not read. We did the experiment using
the vision system and the turn table and got an estimate of about 2 m/s.
Therefore, the max velocity of the robot wrt to the tags could be 2 m/s, if
we use the low frequency tags.

> We abandoned the low frequency rfids since it could not read more than one
tags at a time. So we ordered the Series 6000- HF-I Mid-Range RFID
evaluation kit from Texas instrument.

2. Bought Series 6000- HF-I Mid-Range RFID evaluation kit for $645.

> No test has been done so far.

> The individual readers from TI cost around $180. Bulk rate is yet to be
determined.

I think digi-Key is the contractor for TI rfids. They handle all the
shipping and support for Texas Instrument.

He sent me the quote for bulk rate for the tags and readers. It is
available as a pdf document. I will put it in the Wiki system. Look for
skyetek_quote.pdf.

The tags and readers can be mixed in interms of the manufacturer. As long
as the readers support the tags. So we can buy tags from TI and readers
from Skyetek, for example.
