From the Editor's Desk
This winter just keeps on coming. Here in Pittsburgh, PA USA we are currently at about 150% of our annual snowfall. The extra 4” we got this morning was just a bonus for the 10-12” we already have on the ground. Of course it was the freezing rain and ice over night that really messed up the traffic this morning. Along with the very cold temperatures we have been having, I am ready for summer and then perhaps a move to a warmer climate. The strange weather all over the world doesn’t seem to have slowed the news down. This month the IoT news has been coming in at a fast pace. April 9, 2014 is global IoT day. There are plenty of opportunities to participate in events all over the world. Here in Pittsburgh, there is a chance to join in some events. This year IoT day coincides with RFID Journal Live in Orlando, Florida. So to keep the celebrations going, I have organized an event at the show on April 9th. There you can join us for the post conference session on Thursday on the IoT. If you are interested in attending the celebration (for some drinks, food and presentations) or even helping to sponsor it, send me an email at steve@hightechaid.com. 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. Are you interested in sponsoring the newsletter? We are looking for a new sponsor. Drop me a note to editor@hightechaid.com and let me know. E-mail me at editor@hightechaid.com and tell us what you think. Don’t forget to send this issue to your friends so that they can sign up for their own issue of the free newsletter at www.hightechaid.com. If you have news to share or info you need, let me know at editor@hightechaid.com. Technology News Briefs RFID Standards The work on standards is still ongoing. The meetings in December (previously reported) have led to work in several areas. A new work items on an active 2.45 GHz air interface is in ballot, and revisions to the current 2.45 GHz and to the 433 MHz air interfaces are nearing their conclusions. The work on the ISO version of the EPCglobal Gen 2 V2 standard is progressing quickly and should enter the first ballot stage in the next week. In the IoT world, I am looking for standards bodies to help us identify standards that might have relevance to IoT. We have contacted all of the JTC1 subcommittees and are working on the ISO committees. If you are a part of a standards group that has standards for the IoT, then drop me a note to steve@hightechaid.com and I will send you the template we are using for data collection. If you want more information on ISO standardization or on any issue of RFID standardization, then email steve@hightechaid.com.
