What is BlueBerry RFID reader and how does it work?
BlueBerry is an RFID key fob reader capable of reading a UHF / HF RFID tag and transmit it via Bluetooth® to any device equipped with that interface. With the push of a single button, this easy-to-use device allows the reading and transmission of RFID tag data to a mobile device.
In addition this tiny reader is an easy way to integrate the RFID communication system on fixed devices that are equipped with an operative system as Windows, Linux, Mac OS.
All BlueBerry versions
TERTIUM technology develops and produces BlueBerry with UHF and HF technologies. The first one is usually used when the operating distances and/or the number of tags to collect is high, while HF is generally used for proximity applications or in any case when the distance of the tags is not excessive.
TERTIUM has three versions of the two technologies mentioned above: HS, iS and LE. The table below shows all the BlueBerry UHF and HF models and their versions.

Blueberry MS 14 UHF |
A customized version BlueBerry UHF reader. This new model of BlueBerry was born from a need identified by Murata, which has created a new RFID tag with reduced dimensions (3.2×1.6×0.55mm ) but at the same time robust and resistant: the MAGICSTRAP micro tag. |
Blueberry MS 4 UHF |
Murata has developed a new RAIN RFID tag expressly designed for use on metal components and surfaces. To optimise the reading of the information emitted by this tag, TERTIUM has devised a new version of BlueBerry UHF. This reader is equipped with an external antenna, which acts as viewfinder, that allows easy reading of the embedded tag located on a metal surface. |

What are the main areas of application of BlueBerry?
Brand Protection: the RFID reader’s ability to read information stored in the chip along with its unique ID enables quick and accurate product authentication. |
|
Access Control: RFID allows to identify workers every time they went in and out of the client company, record each event and associate date and time, and transmit these data immediately to its server. |
|
Asset Tracking: with RFID, you have accurate visibility of the product path throughout the supply chain. At any time, you know where it is, where it comes from and where it is going. |
|
Audit Process: searching for serial numbers, asset and equipment specifications causes auditing fatigue and possible human error. Using RFID technology it is possible to load automatically information to your auditing software system. |
