What RFID start-ups should do. Re-published from RFID Journal Blog
Posted by Michael Crudele on
Hello everyone, I came across this blog post from Mark Roberti at RFID Journal and loved it. As an RFID professional, I know how RFID technology can solve a whole host of problems, but getting that message through to potential customers can be difficult.

Posted by Michael Crudele on
At Arcadian Inc., our antenna support staff is contacted on a daily basis by people using Motorola’s VC5090 and VC70 Ultra-rugged Vehicle-Mounted Mobile Computers. The issue they are facing is lack of RF / Wi-Fi connectivity from their VC5090 or VC70, which is fork lift / lift truck mounted, to the wireless network in the warehouse or distribution center. Typically, the root cause of this scenario is that these mobile PC’s have an “internal” antenna embedded within the unit itself.
