RFID Devices
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) has emerged as a key technology in supply chain management services. Constantly changing customer requirements, a dynamic technology landscape and advanced industry standards, mandate the need for solution providers to deploy well defined processes for RFID device development, maintenance and upgrades.
Focus Areas
Collabera's RFID services help you provide your customers with stable and feature rich RFID solutions by bridging execution gaps across the RFID product/software development lifecycle. Our offerings span the firmware, interface and application processor layers of RFID readers.
What We Offer
Collabera's services enable you to carry out development and testing activities across the spectrum of RFID based applications and firmware.
Development Services
- Agile software development model – To address key business requirements like fast time-to-market, constantly changing business specifications, test driven development etc.
- Firmware Development Support – Across different air-interface protocols (EPC/Gen2, ISO- 6B, v119), command parser, GPIO, firmware communication (Host), and UART/USB for the host interface. It also covers conformance and compliance with either FCC 47 CFG Ch.1 Part 15 or ETSI EN 302 208.
- Compatibility Support for Gen2 v.1.2.0
- Porting and reengineering –Migration across hardware platforms along with reengineering of RFID application design.
Testing Services
- Firmware Testing – Across air-interface protocols supported by the reader as well as various reader supported commands such as read/write/lock for different tag types (EPC, ISO-6B, and v119), data conditions, data types and module specific commands.
- RFID Specification Testing - Development and system test for both handheld and fixed reader modules. These tests cover upgrade, LLRP, reader interface commands, Hardware/Software settings.
- Network Access Module Testing – Across various networking features supported by the reader such as DNS, FTP, TELNET, SNTP, and SNMP. Our services also address wired (Ethernet, USB, RS232), wireless (WiFi, Bluetooth) testing and Wi-Fi security testing.
- End User Application Testing of RFID reader applications like Inventory Management and Warehouse management applications
- Network & Memory Management Testing for File System, Flash Drives & External Drives
- Business solution and end-to-end system integration testing
