From the Editor's Desk

Steve HallidayWelcome to the latest issue of the High Tech AIDCourier.

  Here in North East USA, autumn has arrived and a recent road trip showed the colors of the leaves are really starting to show their colors. In the AIDC world, we are starting to see the colors of the technologies in more and more places. A recent purchase of socks at Macy’s allowed me to see the RFID tag on the packaging. The world of apparel is really implementing RFID and  we are starting to see great benefits (see articles below).

In the non-apparel world, RFID is also starting to be used in many new applications.  I am looking forward to the RFID Journal Live show in the USA next year to learn more about some of these exciting applications. If you or your company needs consulting help in the world of AIDC, then drop me a note and let's chat. High Tech Aid provides consulting on a variety of areas associated with AIDC.

 Follow my Twitter feed (@RFIDMan) for more current RFID, IOT and AIDC news and information.

RFID Standards

The standards world is still waiting for GS1 EPCglobal to release the Gen 2 Version 2 specification. This standard is reaching its final review processes and once it is released ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 31 will modify the ISO/IEC 18000-63 standard and the work on the ISO/IEC 29167-xx standard will move forward to reference the new version of ISO/IEC 18000-63 and allow cryptographic techniques to be used with the UHF RFID standard.

If you want more information on ISO standardization or on any issue of RFID standardization, then email steve@hightechaid.com. For a look at RFID standards work, you can visit http://www.UnderstandRFIDstandards.com.
