Conspicuous by its absence is RFID.
Rolf Breuer discusses ZigBee and how this five-into-one convergence impacts RFID.
Speaker: Rolf Breuer
Rolf has extensive experience in communications, process control, product development, and has worked in the Silicon Valley since 1986.
His interest in RFID was triggered by the idea of deploying RFID tags (and their readers) within the supply-chain, providing the needed closed loop feedback that is ultimately necessary to optimize the flow of goods in the system.
- Founder, ConnectionLabs, a wireless peripherals company working in the field of data security and protection.
- Co-founder of the Silicon Valley RFID Special Interest Group (with presence on Yahoo Groups). |
