People and vehicle access control specialist Nortech has introduced a robust long-range reader based on semi-active RFID technology, which enables automatic vehicle identification at distances of up to 10 metres and speeds of up to 125 mph
The TRANSIT Ultimate from Nedap is a high-end reader and is designed to perform well in both high-security applications and demanding vehicular access control applications. It is also designed to perform under harsh environmental conditions.
This is ideal for use in staff car parks, for priority vehicle control, industrial site access control, fleet and parking management. The specially designed technology also makes it the perfect solution for tolling systems, distribution centres, bus lane control, taxi-feeder systems and vehicle access control.
The TRANSIT Ultimate aims to provide the highest level of security and convenience for both vehicles and drivers. The built-in antenna, an integrated read range adjustment board and a variety of communication interfaces ensure that integration is both seamless and flexible. The identification lobe of the reader is a directed beam, offering a precise determination of the detection area.
To work alongside the TRANSIT Ultimate, Nedap has designed five different tags to suit all environments. These are the Booster, Compact Tags, Window Button and Switch and the Heavy Duty Tag ISO.
The Booster combines long-range vehicle and driver identification at up to 10 metres.
