Ru. Bee Andrew Giles 03. 23. 07
An alternative to RFID? ● ● ● What is Ru. Bee? The differences between Ru. Bee and RFID. Applications that could benefit from Ru. Bee
What is Ru. Bee? ● ● ● Ru. Bee™ visibility networks A similar technology to RFID Long Wavelength ID (LWID) Continuous identification Greater read ranges The ability to read around water and metal A longer life than active RFID
History ● In June 2006, IEEE announced working on a new visibility network protocol standard IEEE P 1902. 1 To be in place by mid 2007 Known by industry observers as “RFID 2. 0”
The difference. . . ● ● ● Ru. Bee uses almost exclusively magnetic energy. Ru. Bee operates at low frequencies. Ru. Bee is for visibility, RFID if for tracking Data is stored on the Ru. Bee tag, RFID is a pointer to the data. RFID tags are backscattered transponders Ru. Bee is an active transceiver. Ru. Bee fully programmable.
Capabilities / Advantages ● Higher read ranges than UHF and HF ● ● Ability to read in harsh conditions ● ● ● 100 x 100 ft (10, 000 square feet) Water Metal High noise environments Peer-to-peer communications, between routers and the tags themselves. Long Battery Life Data is stored on tag itself
Uses ● ● ● Visibility of high value items. Anti-theft / shoplifting Smart shelves for high-value medical devices Inventory tracking in harsh environments Agricultural visibility Tracking of people within an environment
Who is backing Ru. Bee? ● ● ● ● Carrefour Best Buy Hewlett-Packard IBM Sony Panasonic Motorola NCR

Questions ● ● ● Which technology provides higher read rates, RFID or Ru. Bee? What are applications that would not be successful with Ru. Bee, what are some that would? What kind of energy does Ru. Bee use, that is different than RFID?
