Read MoreRFID in Rail Asset Management
Radio Frequency Identification – is a revolution in logistics. RFID systems consist of a reader, antenna and a minuscule tag through which objects, animals and/or persons can be identified and followed real-time using radio signals. By using RFID, read data from multiple tags can be processed from a distance, simultaneously, automatically and fast. It’s possible…
Read MoreResearchers Created Technology Used To See Through Walls Called “Wi-Vi”
A technology that lets you see behind walls could soon be built in to your cell phone. MIT professor Dina Katabi and graduate student Fadel Adib have announced Wi-Vi, a demonstration of a technology that uses WiFi to allow a viewer to “see” a person moving behind a wall. (Wi-Vi stands for “WiFi” and “vision.”).…
