An RFID reader in a keychain shape
A low cost tracking RFID reader of the size of a keyring allows the user to identify and track a specific object. The technology is quite simple to use: a tag (consisting of a microchip and an antenna) is placed on the object to be tracked and a reader is used to capture the data that can be transferred to either smartphones or PCs
TERTIUM RFID Readers: new software development tools
Our new software development tools can be utilised on the following devices
- BlueBerry LE HF;
- BlueBerry LE UHF;
- NFC Scanner;
- UHF Scanner
TERTIUM Technology RFID Readers can be connected through Bluetooth Low Energy to any device such as smartphone or tablet equipped with Bluetooth v4.0 or later (Bluetooth Smart) interface.
To interact with mentioned readers you need a specific application that can connect to a Bluetooth Smart Ready device and manage a bi-directional communication.
To speed up the work of the developers we have made public, on the GitHub website ( https://github.com/tertiumtechnology ), the API libraries to build and implement the app to interact with our RFID readers.
The API libraries are available for the two Android and iOS operating systems.
