Technology
The variety of RFID application components comprises interrogators, tags, integrated circuits, antennas, transponders, converters, processors and the corresponding software system solutions. Their purpose is to detect and identify persons, vehicles, goods, keys and valuables automatically and without physical contact, in same cases biometrically, to capture information about them, to control their access and guide their further way.Deister Electronic systems are based upon the technology of electromagnetic waves, Radio Frequency Identification, biometrics and Bluetooth technology. They operate within the range from long waves to ultra high frequency, that is up to three Gigahertz. Recent innovations are mini readers in computer mice, metallic and textile ultra high frequence transponder.
