Radiant RFID Manages Over $1 Billion in Assets

The number and types of items that universities and schools are being held accountable for is steadily increasing. Radiant RFID’s Virtual Asset Tracker enables users to readily track assets in a wide variety of environments without crawling under desks, climbing on ladders, or opening cabinets. Utilizing the latest in RFID technology from Motorola®, Radiant’s Virtual Asset Tracker allows the monitoring of all types of assets ranging from common IT assets such as desktops, laptops and projectors to expensive healthcare equipment, furniture, and vehicles.

Designed specifically for higher education institutions and facilities, Radiant’s Virtual Asset Tracker solution helps improve accuracy of inventory for state compliance, increases the efficiency of the inventory process, and in some instances helps safeguard the tagged assets. Radiant’s solution supports both active and passive RFID depending on the customer’s environment and goals.

Because they each use label type tags, many people think that barcodes and RFID are the same. Actually, RFID is much more efficient than barcodes. The limitations on barcodes are that it requires line of sight to the barcode itself and you can only read one barcode at a time. RFID does not require line of sight and can read multiple tags at one time. The RFID reader “sees” all identified tags within its adjustable range with the click of a button, feeding back information regarding those assets it has located. The tag information is cross-referenced against the assigned physical location in the database and assets are recorded as present, missing or relocated.

Virtual Asset Tracker is the perfect solution for the challenges faced by anyone in charge of a large number of assets and allows users to accurately and efficiently manage the physical location of inventory items.
