Equipment tracking in hospitals has traditionally involved very expensive infrastructure to establish an effective real-time location system (RTLS). Electro-com is very pleased to announce that we are now the distributors of Spotto, a new and innovative Australian-developed asset tracking system. A system that can be installed, and operated, at a fraction of the cost of traditional RTLS systems. This system, using locally developed software and hardware, is already delivering excellent operation

Electro-Com has recently added two new temperature screening products to our portfolio.  Below is a brief introduction, please contact us for further details. SEEK SCAN™ Seek Scan™ is a simple, low-cost, thermal imaging system designed to automate body temperature screening using skin temperature as a proxy. With ±0.3°C accuracy and the inclusion of a reference heat source, Seek Scan delivers the same performance as an infrared temporal thermometer – but with a safe social distance. -A

Oct. 30, 2013 –– The NFC Forum, and the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the trade association for the world’s airlines, have announced the joint publication of the “NFC Reference Guide for Air Travel” as a comprehensive free reference guide available to download from the NFC Forum’s website. The document seeks to help the global air travel industry better understand and evaluate the potential benefits and costs, use cases, and implementatio

While in the eyes’ of many the mining industry is “booming”, with no end in sight to the rapid growth, there has never been a greater need for the intelligent management of assets and human resources within the sector. Worker safety, site security, vehicle and personnel access, and effective utilization of assets are high on the priority list of every mine operations manager. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is at the core of many new systems that are driv

Ntag 203, 213, 216 or Mifare Ultralight. Depending on the application either only the ID code or the complete memory contents can be read out or be re-written. Besides Read/Write Units the AceProx GmbH also offers NFC transp

Background to G.L.B. ‘Black Snake’ Strops Black Snake was established in January 2002 as an Australian manufacturer of recovery strops designed specifically for vehicle recovery and towing. The use of specially engineered manufacturing equipment allows them to construct a range of specialised, as well as custom made, recovery strops for mining, industrial, military and recreational requirements. The outcome is that Black Snake has become an increasingly sought after supplier of recove

The number of areas where RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) can be used in healthcare to reduce costs as well as improve standards, compliance, patient care, and staff effectiveness have been ballooning over recent times. We are all familiar with the use of RFID to manage access control, assets and even mon

“By acquiring PANMOBIL, FEIG ELECTRONIC expands its product line of LF, HF and UHF RFID hardware with mobile AutoID devices optimized for use in logistics and manufacturing operations,” reports Eldor Walk, Managing Director, FEIG ELECTRONIC. “At the same time, FEIG expands into the field of barcode technology which is a great compliment to our RFID portfolio.” As a new business field for mobile AutoID products, the name PANMOBIL will remain and integrated into the IDENTIFICATION

RFID technology provides efficiencies – that’s not new! In principle RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) can solve any number of logistical problems associated with tracking items, equipment or materials. Whether tracking pharmaceutical products, from distribution centre to retail outlets, or tools and equipment used in mining operations, RFID is a proven solution to automate this tracking process and improve operational efficiencies. This is facilitated with the use of readers, an

Whether vehicle, or pedestrian, if you require a reader to trigger an event through a Wiegand driven Control Panel we have 2 highly functional and cost effective solutions. Depending on whether you require 1, or up to 4 credentials driven access lanes (2 lanes with both In & Out access required). Single Lane Access point – Wiegand to controller output If your requirement is for a single lane access (with automatic exit), then the IP65 rated Invengo XC-RF850 Integrated Reader is a

The value of RFID programs increases with the volume of items that can be tagged and tracked. Today the number of RFID-suitable items is set to expand exponentially because of continued innovation – specifically because of new read-on-metal smart labels that are flexible enough to be applied to almost any object and provide users the ability to produce RFID asset labels with variable information on demand. To find out more about the benefits of read-on-metal RFID smart labels, and discov

For industry suppliers and manufacturers there is no better platform to showcase new technology and meet potential buyers and decision makers. Electronex is Australia’s only dedicated event for the electronics sector. Now in it’s 4th year the expo brings together leading suppliers of products, equipment and services to meet with engineers, designers and system integrators that need to see, test and compare the latest technologies for their industries. Electronex 2013 – El

When payment terminal operators eliminate the requirement of removing a credit card from a wallet or purse, consumers complete transactions nearly 53 percent faster than when utilizing traditional credit card payment methods, according to an American Express report. Though it requires an infrastructure overhaul, contactless EMV (Europay, MasterCard, Visa) offers a more efficient, secure method of handling credit card transactions. This white paper, sponsored by Frankfurt, Germany-based Fei

The maximum QXGA resolution is therefore more than 2.5 times higher than full HD. Another major advantage is that the new sensor technology in combination with preprocessing the image data directly in the camera delivers a video stream frame rate of up to 30 frames per second. An increased zoom capability of the S15, D15 and V15 enhances the possibilities even further. “We have increased the zoom option in color by 27% by using the new sensor technology, and by more than 200% in blac
