The Value of Privacy Enhanced RFID for B2B Solutions
Even though the privacy issues related to the use of RFID in consumer applications and the security issues in the B-to-B space are very different, RFIDsec says its unique Privacy Enhanced Technology (PET) is meeting general RFID security issues in B2B across industries. Apart from an introduction to the technology, the session will, for the first time, reveal results from pilot projects based upon RFIDsec's own RFID technology and the business cases behind the pilot projects.

Speaker:

Henrik B. Granau, CEO, RFIDsec

Using RFID to Drive Picking Accuracy to 100%
Combining the knowledge from more than 350 voice-picking installations and over 50 RFID installations, Zetes 3i Competence Centres have designed a new innovative solution to get to 0% errors during the order-picking process. By using voice to direct the picker and adding RFID to check the handling of the picker, Zetes has eliminated mistakes in choosing the product and quantity.
