The Missing Link to iOT Computing: RAIN RFID
Michael HrabinaExecutive Vice PresidentFEIG Electronics, Inc.www.feig-electronics.com
“Take a lot of unrelated and minimally related things such as passive RFID, Zigbee, wireless sensor networksand hobbyist micro-controllers and give them a grand new name such as the Internet of Things. Instantly youcan claim it is a substantial market and set to be much bigger in the future if only because you will shovel other things into the definition. Sell it all as ”The Next Big Thing”. You can unload a lot of reports and consultancy on the back of that.”
Dr. Peter Harrop, Chairman IDTechEx
Nailing the definition of The Internet of Things
“The Internet of Things uses smart objects with their own IP addresses, operating and even collaborating
without human involvement”
Dr. Peter Harrop, Chairman IDTechEx
IoT depends on wide variety of technologies
Five Generations of computers
Era Technology Programming1940-1956 Vacuum tube Machine code
1956- 1963 Transistors Assembly Language
1964-1971 Integrated Circuits Proprietary Operating Systems
1971-Present Microprocessors Standard Operating Systems
Beyond Massively Parallel Processing
Quantum Computation
The next generation is Artificial Intelligence
Progression of computer users
Users EntityScientists Governments
Engineers University / Large Corporations
Skilled workers Business
Mass Population Home Users
Things Everywhere
Internet of Things is part of the fifth generation
AI requires many inputs
• Voice recognition• Pattern recognition• Environmental sensors• Automatic Identification
RAIN RFID is the ID for IoT
RAIN RFID perfectly suited AI input
• Extremely fast• Non-line of sight data capture• Simultaneous capture of large numbers of transponders• Excellent read range• Small size, variety of form factors• Combined environmental sensors
RAIN RFID closes the gap to the next Generation of computing
