Active RFID and Sensor Networks

October 26th, 2007

from IDTechEx

Active RFID, where a battery drives the tag, is responsible for an increasing percentage of the money spent in the RFID market. It will rise from 12.7% of the total RFID market this year to 26.3% in 2017, meaning a huge $7.07 billion market. If we include the market for cell phone RFID modules (another form of active RFID), the market is an additional $0.44 billion in 2007 and $1.2 billion in 2017.

Analysis of 75 case studies

In the analysis of 75 active RFID case studies from 18 countries, the largest number of projects has been in Logistics with around double the number for each of the nearest contenders – Air Industry, Automotive/Transportation and Healthcare. Added to those as important sectors will be such things as safety of constructions and people monitoring. Meanwhile, RTLS is being put in about 50 hospitals yearly, for staff, patients and assets. In the case studies, the items that are tagged were mainly containers, followed by vehicles, conveyances and people.

DEXMA @ Eurecan

October 24th, 2007

Dexma Sensors has classified for the semifinals of the Eurecan European Venture Contest 2007 Award. The semifinals will be held in Brussels, Turin, Copenhaguen, Paris and Pamplona, we’ve chosen Pamplona as it’s closer from Barcelona and from Madrid. Why mention Madrid in this post? You’ll find the answer in the previous post. We will be presenting our project in the Eurecan the Nov 5th, and the SIMO starts Nov 6th, so we’ll go directly from Pamplona to Madrid.

The Eurecan is a European Contest and as it’s said in the contest website, its purpose is to encourage the creation of companies based on innovation and which, thereby, contribute to national and international economic development.

The final of this contest will be held in Barcelona in December, and for sure we will do our best to be there.

Keep watching this blog to know more about the competition and our progress in it.
