Woman in RFID

The 5th edition of the much anticipated corporate event for L’Oréal Malaysia- For Women in Science award ceremony 2010 was held at Hilton Kuala Lumpur on 12 of October to honor the 3 young women researchers that was granted RM20,000 financial assistance to pursue their scientific project in Malaysia. The 2010 National Fellowships recipients are Dr. Widad binti Ismail, Dr. Lim Kue Peng and Chong Pan Pan. Launched in 2006, the L’Oréal Malaysia ‘For Women in Science’ program is in partnership with the Malaysian National Commission for UNESCO and in support with the Academy of Sciences Malaysia, the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation and the Ministry of Higher Education. This Award is provided in recognition of exceptional women in the field of science and encouraging young women to pursue scientific careers and make their dreams come true.

One of recipients for 2010 is:

Dr. Widad binti Ismail- Senior Lecturer,School of Electrical & Electronics Engineering, Universiti Sains Malaysia. Her project focuses on the development and implementation of smart health community using second generation of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), a technology that uses radio waves to automatically identify people, objects, or place at a distance without a direct line-of- sight. Her work targets to build RFID applications on medicine administration and patient identification, This system also helps to distinguish forged and expired medicines and monitors the availability of medicines to ensure sufficient stocks for emergency requirements. RFID holds significant promises to improve efficiency of service delivery in the healthcare sector.

RFID on Haj Pilgrimage

The RFID System, or ‘Radio Frequency Identification’, invented by researchers from Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) is expected to be used by those performing the Haj once it receives accreditation from the Saudi Arabian government next year.

The system which makes use of radio frequency to identify a person could help resolve various problems that the Saudi Arabian government faces each year during the Haj. The RFID system will help to manage the millions of pilgrims who flood Mecca, especially from the aspect of safety.

According to Prof. Kamarulaizi Ibrahim, the Director of the Haj Research Cluster, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), the RFID System can store personal information and data of the pilgrims.

With this, it can help the immigration authorities in Saudi Arabia handle matters related to the pilgrims from overseas as the processing is guaranteed to be swifter and more effective than the present system which takes almost three hours.

“The pilgrims do not have to worry about carrying the requisite information for personal identification as the RFID System can store personal information and citizenship such as the person’s name, the next-of-kin, baggage, flight details, traveling arrangements by bus, accommodation and other pertinent information,” he said.

He said this during the press conference after the launching of the ‘4th Seminar on Hajj Best Practices Through Advances in Sciences and Technology’ which was officiated by Special Religious Advisor to the Prime Minister, Dato’ Seri Dr. Abdullah Md. Zin at Eastin Hotel, Penang.

He added that the concept of the RFISD System has been introduced to Ummu Al-Qura University, Saudi Arabia and has been well-received. If there are no objections, the university will assist USM in obtaining confirmation and accreditation from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Saudi Arabia so that it can be used in 2011.

Prior to this, USM has conducted various kinds of research with Ummu Al-Qura University, especially with regard to problems faced by the Saudi Arabian government during the Haj season. These problems include overcrowding, cleanliness, solid waste disposal, accidents and the improvement of air quality throughout the Haj season.

“Currently, almost 100 USM researchers and researchers from Ummu Al-Qura University are working together to upgrade and improve all aspects deemed important during the Haj season. At present, both parties are carrying out research on a subway system for the passage of the pilgrims, including a water system, communication system and an effective system in the event of emergencies,” he added.

LPG customer using RFID tag

Malaysian liquid propane gas (LPG) supplier Elpiji is using radio frequency identification to automate the process of filling gas cylinders, attaching low-frequency (LF) passive RFID tags to several hundred such cylinders at its Penang plant. The technology has enabled the company to reduce the time required for workers to process cylinders from 30 seconds down to two.

To implement the RFID system, Elpiji enlisted the help of New Zealand RFID reader developer EDiT iD, which believes it has created the world's first RFID interrogator certified for use within an explosive environment.

Elpiji provides gas cylinders to domestic customers for use in household kitchens, says Geoffrey Lee, special assistant to the company's executive director. When a cylinder is returned to Elpiji, two critical pieces of information must be determined before it can be refilled. The first is the tare weight, or weight of the empty cylinder. Some cylinders are returned containing residual gas, and if the tare weight is inaccurate, the system will overfill the cylinders, thus wasting gas, or underfill them and distribute a partially filled cylinder to customers.

The second piece of required information is the cylinder's date of manufacture. Most countries have a requirement for cylinders to be tested 10 years after manufacture, and some gas companies also require cylinders to be refurbished every five years.

Previously, when an empty cylinder arrived at the refilling plant, an operator manually read and keyed in the cylinder's tare weight, then visually verified it was within the requirements for testing or refurbishment. If the cylinder had passed its use-by date, it was manually removed from the conveyor. The process could take an average of 30 seconds per cylinder, thereby creating bottlenecks on the filling line.

"We wanted to develop a system that did not require staff to manually input information such as the tare weight," Lee says. "RFID is more accurate when reading information and, unlike bar codes, will not be damaged as easily."

EDiT iD's first task was to develop an RFID interrogator that could be safely used within the hazardous area of an LPG filling plant. To that end, the company developed the Model 0205 reader, certified for compliance with IECEx standards for electronic equipment used in explosive environments.

The system also utilizes 125 kHz LF tags from German company Tectus that comply with the ISO-IEC 18000-2 standards, and also meet the ATEX hazardous environment requirements established by the European Union.

Because of the potential danger inherent in operating RFID within an explosive environment, Lee says, the development and approval process took more than five years. "Ensuring the readers, tags and antennas were explosion-proof was the biggest challenge," he states, "as was ensuring there was no interference because of the amount of steel in the plant. So it is important to continue fine-tuning the system."

The tag is matched to a database record that includes the tare weight and manufacture date, says EDiT iD's general manager, Mark Powell. Now, when a cylinder is placed on the conveyor belt, two fixed-position readers identify each cylinder and verify its eligibility to be refilled and reissued.

If no tag is attached to the cylinder, it is automatically pushed to a side conveyor for rejected cylinders. Likewise, if the manufacturing date exceeds regulations, the gas cylinder is rejected.

Each cylinder meeting all necessary requirements is forwarded to the next stage, where a dispenser pumps in the exact amount of gas required to fill that cylinder. The cylinders are then automatically routed to inspection, cleaning and other stations. The whole process takes two seconds, requiring no human intervention.

Elpiji uses production control software from Kosel Industries, which modified its system to accept the RFID information.

By using radio frequency identification, Powell says, Elpiji will eventually be able to process as many as 700 cylinders an hour at its small processing plants, and up to 3,600 cylinders per hour at its larger factories. "Without RFID," he says, "that is not possible because of the human intervention, such as reading the date of manufacture, and reading and manually keying in the tare weight of cylinders."

According to Powell, there is significant potential to expand the RFID system at Elpiji's factories throughout the Asia Pacific region. "At the moment, Elpiji has no way of knowing where its gas cylinders are once they leave the filling plant," he explains. "In some countries, gas cylinders can be stolen by other gas companies, or stolen and sold for scrap metal."

Sabah Forestry going rfid

The Sabah Forestry Department is going high tech to keep track on the of movements of logs from the forest where they are felled right to the point where they are sold.

The department will start tracking logs harvested from 11,000ha of Yayasan Sabah forest concession areas this year, its director Datuk Sam Mannan said.

He said the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) log tracking system would also complement the department’s implementation of reduced impact logging (RIL) from this year.

“The use of RFID technology will ensure accountability and prevent so-called leakages in the production and disposal of our logs,” he said.

He said the use of the RFID technology would also spell more efficiency in tracking logs harvested from Sabah’s forests.

The RFID system would see barcode tags being placed on each log with details such as their size and species being recorded using hand-held devices that would transmit the details to a database.

Apple vs rest of Smartphones

NXP G2iL+

RFID is on the cusp of moving beyond automation of manual data entry to collect status about the object itself. In simple terms, RFID is moving beyond the “what or where” of the object into the realm of “how is the object?”.

A good example of this new realm was presented at the IEEE RFID conference, where RFID was being used to collect the status of a beverage glass. (An abstract of the paper by Rahul Rahul Bhattacharyya of MIT Auto ID labs is online.) Conventional RFID can provide the identity and approximate location of a beverage glass, but eventually, RFID will also indicate if the glass is full, empty, or the proverbial half empty or half full.

NXP Semiconductors (formally of Phillips electronics) is entering this realm of providing the status of an object by releasing a new tag IC, dubbed the G2iL+. One of its features is to provide the status of an object using tamper detection. Up to this point, some tag manufacturers have provided status using tamper destruction where the tag is rendered inoperable after tampering. Tamper destruction in tags can work in certain applications, but if you can’t read this type of tag, you never know for certain if the tag has been tampered with or if you can’t read the tag because of some other issue, such as RF interference, antenna failure, or reader failure. Tamper detection lacks this ambiguity because the tag remains operational and conveys the tamper status with data conveyed to the reader.

Malaysia Airlines (MAS) customers using the newly launched Apple iPad MHkiosk will get a waiver on the administrative fee for travel during the six-month pilot project period.

MAS charges an administration fee of RM30 for domestic destinations and RM60 for international destination, said its managing director and chief executive officer Tengku Datuk Azmil Zahruddin after unveiling the kiosks.

The initial five kiosks are stationed at KL Sentral and the national carrier expects 10 per cent of its customers to use the MHkiosk for their transactions, he said.

Customers going to the KL Sentral office, which serves about 900 customers a day, can now book and purchase flights, search for flight schedules and flight status, check-in as well as choose their preferred seat via the kiosk.

Tracking pallet thru RFID

LHT Holdings is a supplier of wooden pallets to industry sectors including electronics, petrochemical, pharmaceuticals and warehousing. May Yap, executive director said, “With RFID technology, we are able to keep track of the movements of the pallets which we rent out. Via the use of tags – each identified by a unique serial number – we can determine when the pallets move out from our customers’ premises and arrive at their retailer’s depot. We are also able to tell which pallets have been ‘de-hired’ and returned to us. This allows us to maintain a history and to manage the lifecycle of each pallet. It also helps us to minimize pallet loss.

Tracking Blood using RFID

Alien Technology, supplier of UHF Gen 2 radio frequency identification (RFID) products and services, and Barcelona, Spain based integrator partner Aifos Solutions, have announced the successful implementation of a UHF RFID based hemo-derivative blood bag tracking application. The solution dramatically improves upon efficiency, reduces errors, enhances visibility, and bolsters security within the supply chain at the Blood and Tissue Bank of Balearic Islands in Mallorca, at a fraction of the cost of alternative RFID tag solutions, says Alien.

“Great strides have been made with UHF RFID over the years, positioning the technology in favorable light in what was once considered an unachievable application, namely placement of UHF tags on liquids such as blood bags Today, however, these hurdles have been easily overcome, and UHF RFID performance far surpasses all other RFID tag technology options at a fraction of the cost. Today, high density containers with over 80 blood bags each are virtually instantaneously read, even on liquids in high moisture, frozen environments,” Alien said in a statement..

Explains Joan Xiol, managing director of Aifos, "One issue with using RFID to track blood/hemo-derivative bags has been how and where one could apply an RFID inlay on the plasma bag without any contaminants leeching into the blood itself. We found the correct solution to eliminate any contamination. Additionally, the inlay label needed to survive long durations at freezing temperatures (-35ºC) when the plasma bags are kept in the storage chamber.

“The tagged plasma bag must be readable both in a liquid and frozen state -- this was the second greatest challenge in this application. We are proud to say that we have solved both of these challenges and have installed the world's first such whole vein-to-vein tracking solution at the Blood and Tissue Bank of Balearic Islands in Mallorca (FBSTIB)."

Sumlung Bluetooth adaptor

The Sumlung SL-BA10 is the world’s first Bluetooth barcode adapter which is designed to fit into major handheld barcode scanners including Symbol, HHP and Metrologic and will convert this scanner into a Bluetooth device.

The main advantage of using this adapter is one which is close to many hearts this year – cost. By transforming the bog-standard scanner into a Bluetooth device Sumlung claims that you will save 30 to 50 per cent in costs in comparison to the traditional barcode scanner.

This device is aimed primarily at companies such as UPS, TNT, EMS and DHL as they will be able to scan the tracking number and the goods barcode straight into their mobile phone or PC. This technology could also be used in the warehouse and be sent the same way.

In order to use this device in conjunction with your mobile phone or PC you must first remove the wire from the bottom of the traditional scanner, the device then fits in the bottom as shown below.

Sumlung SL-BA10 software must then be loaded onto either the PC or mobile phone and opened. Once this is completed and the device is switched on, the fun can begin. At present the suggested retail price for this adapter is around £60 yet Sumlung assured us that the wholesale price will be cheaper.

Mobile barcode scanner for Halal market

GS1 is trying to enable easy access to the product information from one-dimensional barcodes available on product packaging and to simplify the fragmented environment of two-dimensional barcodes. In addition the aim is to ensure that the majority of mobile phones include software for reading barcodes. The mobile barcode can be also used for information about a product’s origin. A “halal checker” in Malaysia enables customers to scan the barcode on a package of meat to ensure it is real halal meat. In October, one of the most paid-for applications on the iPhone App Store was RedLaser, a barcode scanner for iPhone.

It enables users to scan any barcode and the application immediately provides product information and online prices. There are examples that prove barcode scanning through mobiles offers great opportunities for retailers, food and household goods producers and consumers. Japan and South Korea have developed local standards, and have the most advanced markets for mobile barcodes; with more than 70 percent of consumers in Japan having used their mobile phone to scan a barcode.

Good News for Digi Users

Ekahau tracks movement on crusie ship

When Royal Caribbean's Oasis of the Seas set sail from Helsinki on its maiden voyage in December 2009, the cruise ship offered its passengers more than two 40-foot-long surfing pools, a zip line, a 30-foot-tall rock-climbing wall and a host of other amenities. The 1,200-foot-long vessel—the world's largest cruise ship—also provided its customers with an rfid-based application that offers families and other groups a way to track their members.

The application employs Ekahau's real-time locating system (RTLS), which includes Wi-Fi-based RFID tags in badges or wristbands, and an Apple iPhone, which can access each tag's location on its screen displaying a map of the ship. The location information is transmitted to the iPhone via the ship's existing Wi-Fi nodes. The system also enables the iPhone user to send an alert when needed, to those wearing the wristbands.

Royal Caribbean installed a Wi-Fi network of nearly 1,000 access points on the ship, with plans for a host of wireless services intended to improve passengers' experience on board—all under the name Royal Connect. The iPhones offer the passengers the ability not only to locate their party members, but also to make reservations at restaurants and spas by calling or sending messages to those merchants, track daily activities by accessing daily postings of those activities, and receive notifications when, for example, their table is ready at a restaurant. The software that manages data for these services was provided by DeFi Global, located in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Ekahau provides a Wi-Fi-based tracking solution with tags that could transmit a unique ID number to the vessel's existing Wi-Fi nodes. Ekahau's software determines each tag's location within 10 to 15 feet, based on signal strength and data related to tag movement, in order to predict in which direction that individual is moving. The tag's ID number, along with its location, is forwarded to the DeFi Royal Connect software, running on a back-end server. According to John Shoemaker, Ekahau's VP of worldwide sales, the DeFi software receives that ID number and forwards the tag's location—and, thereby, that of the individual wearing it—to the appropriate iPhone.
