Systems and methods for facility matching and localization
Provided are methods, including computer-implemented methods, devices, and computer-program products applying systems and methods for facility matching and localization. According to some embodiments of the invention, the location of a pallet at a facility within a supply chain may be determined from location data received from a beacon on the pallet. In some embodiments, the position of the pallet within the facility may also be determined. Thus, the status of pallets may be monitored as they move through the supply chain.
System and method for radio frequency identification tag reuse
A label includes a recycled sloop type radio frequency identification (RFID) tag from a previously used label. The RFID tag is removed from the previous label by cutting the RFID tag from the previous label using a laser, die, or cutting wheel. The conductor antenna of the RFID tag can be cut to remove damaged portions or change operation of the RFID tag. A slot in the conductor antenna can be resized to tune the RFID tag to allow the RFID tag to be used for the same application use or a different application use. The label can include indicia such as machine readable indicia and human readable indicia. The extracted RFID tag can include portions of the previous label, which can be free of indicia.
Method and apparatus for processing information of goods-picking container, and store system
Embodiments of this application disclose methods and apparatuses for processing information for a goods-picking container, and a store system including a first area for storing goods and performing a plurality of goods-picking tasks, wherein each of the plurality of goods-picking tasks corresponds to one of one or more delivery batches and is performed with one of a plurality of goods-picking containers; an automatic transfer device configured to automatically transfer each of the plurality of goods-picking containers containing goods picked according to a corresponding goods-picking task in the first area to the second area; the second area for grouping the plurality of goods-picking containers into one or more groups, and for transferring the group of goods-picking containers to a third area; and the third area for packing the goods contained in the plurality of goods-picking containers according to each of the plurality of delivery batches.
ANTENNA DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM
There is provided an antenna device, a control method, and a program that control enabling or disabling of a plurality of IC card antennas by using a mobile terminal. The antenna device includes: a mobile terminal antenna that receives a radio wave output by a reader/writer provided in a mobile terminal; a plurality of IC card antennas that communicates with an IC card including an IC chip for the IC card that reads/writes data in a contactless manner in response to a command transmitted by the reader/writer; and a control circuit that operates by using power generated when the mobile terminal antenna receives the radio wave output by the reader/writer and controls enabling or disabling of each of the IC card antennas in response to the command transmitted by the reader/writer. The present technology is applicable to a playmat used for a card game using a smartphone having an NFC function and an IC card.
Methods and apparatuses for removing a security tag
Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable media for receiving a confirmation signal to unlock the security tag from being locked to a merchandise, transmitting a RFID signal to the RFID device associated with the security tag to enable a controller to receive a release signal used to unlock the security tag from the merchandise, and transmitting the release signal to the controller to unlock the security tag from the merchandise.
Conduit with radio frequency identification (RFID) enabled sensor
A system for sensing a physical property of a medium inside a conduit includes a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader arranged to transmit electromagnetic signals in at least one radio frequency. An RFID tag receives the least one radio frequency and exchanges the received radio frequency to electrical energy powering the RFID tag. An included sensor electrically connected to the RFID tag receives the electrical energy from the RFID tag and powers the sensor to obtain measurement data of at least one physical property of the medium and transmit the measurement data to the RFID tag. The RFID tag transmits the measurement data to the RFID reader using the at least one radio frequency.
Display adjustment method and device for bar-shaped electronic shelf label
The present disclosure discloses a display adjustment method and device for a bar-shaped electronic shelf label. The method according to the present disclosure includes: configuring a mobile terminal to be coupled with a bar-shaped electronic shelf label and obtain status information of display elements displayed on a display interface of the bar-shaped electronic shelf label; changing, by the mobile terminal, the position information of a display element from a first position information to a second position information and generating an element position adjustment instruction; configuring the bar-shaped electronic shelf label to receive the element position adjustment instruction, change the position of the display element from the first position to the second position in response to the element position adjustment instruction, and display the display element on the display interface of the bar-shaped electronic shelf label.
Method for the determination of processing influences on the nutritional value of feedstuff raw materials
The present invention relates to a method for the determination of processing influences on the quality of feedstuff raw materials and/or feedstuffs, in which the processing conditions indicator of the of feedstuff raw materials and/or feedstuffs is determined and the specific digestibility coefficient of an amino acid of a feedstuff raw material and/or feedstuff in an animal species is determined. The present invention also relates to a process for the optimization of feedstuffs considering the determined processing influences and the thus obtained and/or obtainable feedstuffs.
Item identification via RFID tag secret
A method is provided to determine unique identifiers. A physical item has an RFID integrated circuit (IC) having a unique identifier and a secret. The RFID IC may be configured to provide an identifier portion and a response to a previously sent challenge, where the identifier portion by itself is insufficient to completely identify the IC or item and the response is based on the challenge and the secret. Attempts are made to verify the response using a set of potential secrets determined using the identifier portion. If the response is successfully verified using a certain secret, the secret may then be used to determine one or more other identifier portions. The unique, complete identifier may then be determined from a combination of at least the identifier portions.
READING SYSTEM AND READING METHOD
A reading system includes a controller that is mounted on a vehicle, and a reader that reads a tag of a load placed in a load chamber of the vehicle, wherein the controller includes a second determination part that determines whether the door of the load chamber is closed, and a displacement control part that displaces the load chamber in accordance with a timing when the tag information acquisition part acquires the identification information if the second determination part determines that the door of the load chamber is closed, wherein the reader includes a first determination part that determines whether a door of the load chamber is closed, and a tag information acquisition part that acquires identification information stored in the tag through non-contact communication if the first determination part determines that the door of the load chamber is closed.
