Oracle has announced they will now be applying RFID tags to all of their hardware products to facilitate automated tracking. Oracle realized that while their equipment is now RFID enabled, many of their customers were not familiar with RFID and how it can improve their ability to track and account for IT equipment in their data centers. In response to this need, Oracle recently published their white paper, “How to Track Your Oracle Sun System Assets by using RFID“, which describes and outlines a successful RFID implementation in a data center environment. The white paper goes on to explain how to get started with your own RFID system to manage your IT assets. The standards for implementing this system were defined by the Financial Services Technology Consortium (FSTC) in the early part of the decade.

Project Volcano: an explosive contest from Savi
.
.
We at VeryFields are always willing to promote associations and activities that help RFID market to grow and today we are proud of hosting a blog post from Savi Technology:.
.
Low-power wireless technologies, like RFID, are on the verge of a productivity revolution at home and work.
At Savi Technology, we’re challenging industry developers to come up with the best wireless apps to improve the quality of life around us. Maybe it’s about finding your lost keys or missing child. Maybe it’s remotely monitoring the moisture in your lawn, smog indexes or electricity consumed in a facility. Maybe it’s around remotely capturing information from digital ads.
No idea is too imaginative, as long as it has practical and productive applications. We thank VeryFields for helping us to get the word out to the developer community about our contest that we’re calling, Project Volcano.
Project Volcano will run until Dec. 15. A panel of judges from Savi Technology’s leadership will evaluate the best ideas based on creativity, practical real-world scenarios and end-user benefits. Just register here, and send us a 100-word proposal for long-range, low-power solutions based on DASH7 technology for low-power Radio Frequency applications. Spot Prizes and a Grand Prize include Savi’s developer tools and platform.
Together, we can marshal the power of DASH7 and help to improve the world. Good luck with the contest!

Intelleflex has created RFID solution to improve harvesting operations
Many times, especially during a harvest, having delivery truck available for operations is the difference between profit and loss.
Intelleflex has created an RFID solution to improve harvest efficiency leveraging its XC3 long read range RFID technology combined with GPS, GPRS and WiFi.
Readers have been placed on the harvesters and tags on the delivery trucks. The readers pull information from the harvester (e.g. location, product, quality, etc.) and write that to the tag. The truck then leaves, goes to the scales and updates the database. Further, 
as all trucks are tagged, the harvester can easily know when the next truck will be there.
In addition, when the system is implemented with personnel badge RFID tags, also driver’s movements can be tracked and accurate associations for both driver and equipment is possible.
