More Ultra High Frequency (UHF)RFID tracking....
Fair use applies
RFID-equipped pickups won't let tools go missing
By Hiawatha Bray
Globe Staff / February 11, 2008
Ford Motor Co. is teaming up with ThingMagic Inc., of Cambridge, to help ensure that construction workers always carry the right tools for the job.
more stories like this
The system they're developing, called Tool Link, will feature personal computers in Ford's popular F-series pickup trucks. A radio frequency identification (RFID) tag system will let a truck automatically take inventory of the tools it's carrying.
"It's as simple as turning on your ignition," said Ravi Pappu, head of the advanced development group at ThingMagic, which designs RFID tracking equipment.
An RFID device is a microchip with an antenna. Each chip costs as little as a few cents and contains a unique serial number. Manufacturers and retailers attach RFID chips to cartons or pallets of merchandise, then put RFID readers at key locations, such as loading docks and conveyor belts. The reader transmits radio waves which activate the RFID chips, causing each chip to transmit its ID number. The reader sends this number to an inventory control computer, which now knows the location of each package.
Ford worked with ThingMagic and DeWalt Industrial Tools Inc., of Baltimore, to apply the technology to pickup trucks. Contractors and construction workers are among the biggest buyers of Ford's F-series trucks. Indeed, it's Ford's most popular line. The company sold more than 690,000 of them last year, with a large percentage bought by skilled trades people or the companies that employ them.
Researchers at Ford found that many F-series truck operators lose time and money by arriving at a worksite with the wrong tools, or by leaving tools behind once a job is done.
"It was a case of following customers and seeing the lost productivity that resulted when they didn't have a tool," said Bill Frykman, product and business development manager for Ford Work Solutions.
Ford reached out to ThingMagic and DeWalt, which already makes wireless security systems for preventing theft of tools and equipment at construction sites. The Tool Link system isn't a burglar alarm, but a system that instantly recognizes every tool carried in the truck.
Each Tool Link-equipped truck comes with 50 RFID tags that have been "ruggedized" to withstand harsh treatment. The customer glues a tag to each tool.
The truck contains an onboard computer, built by a subsidiary of the Italian carmaker Fiat, that's equipped with an automotive version of Microsoft Corp.'s Windows operating system. The truck bed also contains a ThingMagic-designed reader to detect RFID chips.
Using a touch screen or a wireless keyboard, a user can create a tool inventory for the truck by scanning in each tagged tool and then typing in a description, such as "hammer" or "power drill." From then on, the truck will automatically scan itself at start-up to see which tools are present. The inventory appears on the dashboard computer screen. "There will be a playlist, much like the playlist on your iPod," Frykman said.
And as with an iPod, the same truck can serve up multiple playlists. If a bricklayer uses the truck on Monday, he can check the inventory of bricklayer's tools. If a plasterer uses it on Tuesday, and a plumber on Wednesday, they can each have their own tool inventory.
Ford won't say how much Tool Link will cost. The company will introduce it during the 2009 model year as an option for F-series pickups and E-series vans, as well as a new line of "Transit Connect" miniature cargo delivery vans.

Consider a world where everyone and everything is tagged with a tiny RFID/GPS dot or invisible RFID ink. Consider a future "RFID Internet" where billions of RFID-tagged items and people wirelessly transmit their location and condition wherever they may be. Consider how this powerful emerging technology may be used by a future global governance bent on controlling humanity to its will while at the same time promising freedom and security to a world terrified by environmental disaster, terrorism, and economic ruin.
According to author Daniel J. Gansle in his book, Your World, Your Future, & Bible Prophecy, this is precisely where emerging RFID/GPS technology is leading. While Mr. Gansle cites many positive aspects of RFID, at issue is the preservation of individual privacy and liberty. This battle between freedom and technological enslavement becomes particularly poignant as GPS is fused with RFID to produce not only a short-distance location capability, but also the ability to track any object or person on the planet within a one-meter radius.

"Now try to imagine how this would work if every world citizen was implanted with an active RFID/GPS microchip, or better yet, tattooed with [invisible] RFID/GPS ink or affixed with a tiny, barely visible GPS-enabled RFID dot. Whether they are trapped in their attics, stuck in their basements, severely injured and lying on the floor, perhaps missing critical medications – in an instant, they would be located and help would arrive quickly. Authorities would know exactly what measures to take in the rescue effort. Lives would be saved. Sounds good, right? At the same time, we must ask the question: at what price to our liberties and freedoms?" (Chapter 4, p. 102).

Mr. Gansle's is obvious selling a crock of illogical, fear mongering crap on the benefits of RFID. Let's apply a little - just a tiny bit - of critical thought to the detailed picture he paints:
Pray tell, how will RFID chip/dot/ink implanted in or on a person call out for help?? First one would have to know a person was in distress before the "locating chip" could theoretically be effective.
From an RFID chip/dot/ink, how would authorities "know exactly what measures to take in a rescue effort?"

AIM Global Predicts Increased Acceptance, Utilization of RFID Technologies in Green Applications
[04/22/08]
AIM Global, the worldwide industry trade association and authority on automatic identification and mobility solutions, announced it views the current utilization of RFID technologies in green-related applications as one of the most promising market segments in the industry today, and predicts consumers will see significant increased usage of RFID in environmentally friendly programs worldwide over the next 18 months.
The announcement was made to coincide with the celebration of Earth Day 2008, the worldwide event, organized by the Earth Day Network (EDN), that annually promotes environmental citizenship, year-round progressive action, and positives changes to local, national, and international environmental policies.
Currently, RFID is being used to advance the efficiency and effectiveness of numerous important city, county, and statewide environmental programs, including the monitoring of vehicle emissions, the collection of recyclable materials, the reuse of packaging resources and electronic parts, and the disposal of electronic waste. In addition, RFID continues to provide greater visibility into the supply chain by helping companies more efficiently track and manage inventories, thereby reducing unnecessary transportation requirements and fuel usage. Specific examples include:
# Vehicle emissions monitoring using RFID is being implemented at this summer's Summer Olympics in Beijing to help supervise air quality. Emissions testing is required for all vehicles travelling in and out of Beijing. An RFID tag is embedded in a decal which is placed on the windshield if the vehicle passes the emissions test. A handheld reader is used to check vehicles on the road. This application will continue even after the 2008 Summer Olympics to help reduce pollution in the city.
# RFID has been deployed to identify electronic subcomponents of PCs, mobile phones, and other consumer electronics products to increase the reuse of these parts and reduce e-waste.
# RFID tags are used to identify packaging materials, and enable automated garbage sorting to turn waste material back into raw material.
# RFID labeling technology is currently undergoing testing on 3,000 reusable plastic containers used to ship produce from three states to Wal-Mart stores in Texas. The testing is being conducted to ensure that the RFID labels and tags can withstand multiple shipment cycles and effectively be reused.
# Several U.S. States are using recycling bins with embedded RFID chips. Bins are scanned and weighed right at the curb. An RFID enabled system, tallies credits for households that are above average for recycling. The system then issues "recycle dollars" that can be used at participating businesses for discounts.
"While RFID has been around for over half a century, we continue to see innovative and timely applications for the technology, particularly with environmentally friendly programs administered by nonprofits and government agencies," said Dan Mullen, president of AIM Global. "Clearly, these examples of green applications powered by RFID are just a few important ways in which RFID is contributing to environmental conservation."
To schedule a media or analyst briefing with AIM Global representatives to discuss these predictions further, or for other inquiries or information, please contact Kevin Van Dina at (646) 306-7799, or by e-mail at kevin@abelsongroup.com.
