RFID Technology Helps Parents Find Lost Uniforms

RagTagd, an Australian company, has introduced a solution that helps parents of students in schools track their uniforms. The RagTagd solution is to have a collection box with passive UHF RFID reader on the school's Lost and Found Area, with labels attached to school uniforms. Software on the RagTagd server keeps track of items in the box and sends messages to parents.

Lost items in the global school is a ubiquitous thing. Students dressed in coat to go to school, often forget to get back in the playground exercise. By the end of the school year, unclaimed items are often discarded, causing waste.

To solve this problem, companies consider using UHF RFID technology, with RFID tag readers built-in and tagged clothing, and school employees do not need to do anything but simply putting their clothes in the box. Using the RagTagd system, the company sew off-the-shelf UHF RFID tags into garments and then sell it to parents with a unique ID number.


Parents need to activate the label when buying uniforms. This process eliminates the need to download additional applications, and parents simply send the six-character code printed on the label to complete the pairing. The collection box is a plastic box with a built-in RFID reader device and antenna that allows the data to be transferred directly to the RagTagd's server.

Public Hospital in Zhejiang Accelerates the Upgrade of RFID Material Management Solutions

A few days ago, the General Office of the Zhejiang Provincial Government released the "Implementation Plan for Promoting the High-Quality Development of Public Hospitals in Zhejiang Province", which clearly stated that "the operation mode has shifted from extensive management to refined management" and "doing reasonable use of medicines, monitoring of medical consumables and medical core data”, which put forward new requirements for the management mode of consumables in public hospitals. In 2019, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University College of Medicine introduced the SPD model for hospital ma terial management . The "smart update" was carried out on the previous SPD model. The hospital fully combined the latest technological means such as the Internet of Things, robots, artificial intelligence, big data, and image recognition to create a new "IF-SPD" model. The overall construction of "IF-SPD" inc...

Introduction of UHF RFID Reader System

  There are four important components to make up a UHF RFID system, the host computer, the reader, the antenna and the electronic label. The host computer sends a command to the reader, the reader turns on the RF module to send UHF signals under the control of the host computer commands, a magnetic field is created around the RFID tag by means of an antenna. When the magnetic field is strong enough, the chip circuit inside of the tag is activated, then the tag carries information is loaded into the electromagnetic wave and returned to the reader. The reader receives and converts the data information, then processed by the upper computer, complete the process of acquiring electronic tag information. Host computer The UHF RFID reader requires the host computer to issue control instructions which can start the reader to send RF signals, the reader receives the signal returned by the tag also needs to be processed and stored by the host computer that can achieve the n...

What is the Difference Between HF and UHF RFID Technology

From the perspective of technological development, high-frequency technology is relatively mature than UHF technology. Through continuous improvement and improvement, a learning curve model for high-frequency tag production, data protocol sharing, and the basis for constructing RFID applications has also been established. Both high frequency and ultra high frequency RFID systems rely heavily on the communication environment between the RFID reader and the tag. UHF uses the principle of electromagnetic emission and is therefore more susceptible to electromagnetic interference. At the same time, the metal will reflect the signal, and the water will absorb the signal, all of which will interfere with the normal function of the tag. The International Organization for Standardization/International Electrotechnical Commission established the ISO/IEC, 15693 standard in 1999 to regulate the implementation of high frequency radio frequency identification technology. Th...
