PDF-417, RFID, WMS, 802.11, WWAN?
Like any technology-centric industry, Automatic Data Collection has a fascination with acronyms. But every new technology and each new acronym doesn’t translate into a better solution for our clients. We are often asked if a new technology will work for a specific application, and if it’s better than what they're using already. The answer is, of course, that newer isn’t always better.
A3 Technologies has just completed the deployment of another wireless system with barcodes and 802.11b. Originally, the client wanted a combination of passive and active RFID with 802.11g for the fastest communications. He was quickly shown that a simple barcode system with a reliable 802.11b wireless system solved 90% of his problems with no degradation in wireless performance.
Not only that, it was 1/3 the cost and could be operational in 1/2 the time. And his CFO felt better that the technologies used were proven, tested, stable, and reliable.
