I.CODE is one of the two products developed by ALBATROS:
I.CODE is a family of ICs for smart labels. It features a variety of functions, which are a key to cost reduction in identification applications such as: Airline Baggage Tagging, Supply Chain Management and Logistics, Parcel Services and Rental Services (Libraries). I.CODE has been established as an open platform with a variety of suppliers of inlets, labels, reader/writers and printers, who are already active in the market segments mentioned. Important parameters of the I.CODE development have been introduced to ISO standardisation committees in order to achieve worldwide compatible products.
I.CODE is the first smart label IC that has been brought to market worldwide. Extremely low-power IC technologies have been used to implement unprecedented long operating range for low-cost read/write RFID. Special research has been undertaken to produce the IC in a way so that manufacturers of labels can produce most cost effectively. Reader/writer-units for I.CODE have been developed to allow system integrators to quickly adopt this technology without having to start costly R&D activities themselves.
Smart labels provide highly reliable identification of items at a very low cost. These smart labels offer significant potential for cost reduction due to automation, error reduction and speed improvement in all areas of automatic item handling.
I.CODE has been successfully put on trial in airline baggage tagging by British Airways (potential market of 1.3 billion units per year). Also Parcel Services have used I.CODE to trace the flow from sender to recipient (potential market of 11 billion units per year). Other markets include the tagging of books in public libraries and the retail sector.
TAGFLOW is one of the two results developed by the ALBATROS project. TAGFLOW is an identification system based on RF/ID technology at 13.56 MHz. Its innovative content comes from it being a cost-effective identification system for goods and products. It can be used in a diversity of domains due to the multipurpose features offered by the product. The product's functionality impacts directly in the three operation areas (logistic, sales and security), which can be found in any business activity related with goods and products management, monitoring and control, providing:
-Identification with high reliability for logistic operations.
-Automatic checkout for sales operations.
-EAS System for security operations.
TAGFLOW allows the unique identification of goods and will enable the development of reliable countermeasure procedures against Fraudulent Reclaim and new systems (probably with international traceable procedures) against the use/sale of Brand Name Fakes. The product has the following components:
-A Tag, which consists of an ASIC placed over a flexible or rigid substrate, attached to an antenna etched or printed.
-Three types of Read/Write Devices: a Point Of Sale (POS) Device, which is connected to a POS PC and powers a POS Antenna to enable sales operations, an EAS Device, which consists of a couple of Gate Antennas whose function is to detect active Tags for Anti-theft purposes and a Portable Device, which enables read/write operations at short range distance, used for specific tasks (shelf coding of articles, price writing, inventory activities.)
-A family of Software Components specifically designed to facilitate the construction of ad-hoc end- user applications. This software consists of libraries specialised by functionality, Reader Antenna Communication/Commutation, Network Communication Protocols, Access Functions to Tag Data, database Interface Functions, Graphic Interface Modules.
The system has scalability as well as customisation properties to allow easy exploitation in different Application Domains. Some examples are:
Retail: the experience acquired in the first Pilots of TAGFLOW has been incorporated into a product resulting, not just in a set that has to be sold as a package, but in a complete product line that, taking into account the specific aspects of each application, allows Orders Management with a quick response time. TAGFLOW reinforces IECISA's current offering in the Retail Sector. The system has been successfully integrated with both Sales Management (StoreFlow) and Warehouse Management Systems.
