An electronic tag inspection system including a reading device that reads first identification information written into an electronic tag; an acquisition unit that acquires second identification information on the basis of information retained by an object, which is an object to which the electronic tag is attached; and a detection unit that compares the first identification information and the second identification information, and detects a difference therebetween as a discrepancy between the electronic tag and the object.

An information processing device includes a communication unit configured to communicate with a measurement equipment mounted on a competitor who participates in a competition, and a traffic regulation compliance determination unit configured to correct a time of the competition when determining, based on the positional information of the measurement equipment, that the competitor is complying with a traffic regulation stopping the competitor from proceeding while the competitor is prohibited from proceeding.

The invention provides a safety system for a cleanroom, which comprises a cleanroom garment provided with a plurality of RFID (radio frequency identification) tags, a face recognition device arranged at an entrance of the cleanroom, and a first RFID reader arranged beside at least one machine in the cleanroom, wherein the first RFID reader is used for identifying the RFID tags on the cleanroom garment, and a KVM network power interrupter connected to a display screen of the machine.

Disclosed is a reader device, system, and method for communicating with a wireless sensor. The reader device may be configured to communicate wirelessly with an implant device associated with a proprietary system provided by a first entity. An external device, that may not be associated with said first entity, is provided and is configured to be calibrated to communicate with the implant device that is located within a patient. The external device may be used in place of an existing reader device that was initially calibrated to communicate with the implant device prior to the implant device being placed within the patient. The external device may be particularly useful for implant devices that communicate wirelessly with external devices where said implant devices are intended to be located within the human body on a permanent or indefinite duration of time.

An automated vehicle parking system uses a driver's authentication device, such as a mobile phone or portable tag, to identify the driver. Vehicle sensing terminals detect when and where a vehicle has parked and send wireless notifications to the vehicle owner's authentication device. The authentication device, the vehicle sensing terminal and a cloud server interact using secure wireless communications to validate the driver's qualifications and record the parking event. Vehicle sensing terminals detect when the vehicle leaves its parking space and the parking system automatically terminates the parking session. The authentication device handles the bulk of the communication with the cloud server to reduce consumption of the vehicle sensing terminal's power supply. The sensing and portable tag devices communicate using secure tokens that are encrypted with unique individual or group keys.

A storage cabinet according to an embodiment stores a plurality of items, each item including a first tag attached thereto. The first tag records item information. The storage cabinet includes: a first reader for reading item information recorded in first tags of items stored in a housing; and a second reader for reading information relating to an item condition of an item to be retrieved from the storage cabinet, when an item to which a second tag is attached is made proximate from the outside to a predetermined area on the housing. The second tag records the information relating to the item condition item information that meets the item condition related to the information read by the second reader, is identified among the item information read by the first reader.

According to one or more embodiments, a wireless tag reader includes a first shield member, a second shield member, an antenna, and a reader. The first and second shield members face each other across a reading area through which a wireless tag can pass. Each of the first and second shield members has a reflective surface that reflects a radio wave incident thereon toward the reading area. The antenna is between the reading area and the reflective surface of one of the first and second shield members. The antenna radiates and receives radio waves to communicate with the wireless tag. The reader reads data stored in the wireless tag based on radio waves received from the wireless tag by the antenna.

An RFID transponder including a Bluetooth compatible transceiver is described as a (BLEET). The Bluetooth® compatible transceiver may be configured to set data that is transmitted via one or more RFID transceivers in the transponder and to return data received by the RFID transceiver(s) to a client application running, for example, on a user's smart phone. The BLEET may be used for electronic vehicle tracking or tolling. Vehicle occupancy data may be set by the user with the client application via a Bluetooth® connection in connection with high occupancy vehicle tolling and express lane incentive programs.

An item or object is exposed to electromagnetic light using a plurality of electromagnetic light emitters that are arranged throughout an enclosed structure. A plurality of images of the item or object is captured by a plurality of image sensors that are arranged throughout the enclosed structure. A first pattern in at least one image is recognized. The first pattern includes encoded information associated with the item and the first pattern is visible in response to the exposure of the item to the electromagnetic light. The encoded information is decoded and the item is identified based on the decoded information.

Disclosed are a reader device, system, and method for communicating with a wireless sensor. The reader device may be configured to analyze the strength of a response signal transmitted from the wireless sensor in response to an excitation pulse generated by the reader device. In one embodiment, the reader device may be configured to engage be placed in a plurality of modes to allow the reader to transmit a signal, such as a short pulse of energy or a short burst of radio frequency energy to cause the wireless sensor to output a resonant signal. The reader device may receive the resonant signal from the wireless sensor and evaluate it against predetermined values. The evaluated signals may be used to assess the strength and the proximity of the reader device relative to the wireless sensor as it is implanted in a patient.
