DALLAS, Feb. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AXCESS International Inc. (OTC
Bulletin Board: AXSI), a leading provider of Radio Frequency Identification
(RFID) systems, today announced the introduction of its new automatic
personnel location accountability solution at the 2006 RFID World Conference
and Exposition. One of the RFID industry's leading events, the conference is
being held at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Dallas, Texas, from February 27
through March 1. The new RFID application, based on the ActiveTag(TM)
platform, provides automatic personnel location accountability as required in
multiple industries, including the Department of Defense (DoD), financial
securities and services, healthcare, warehouses, and data centers. Following
demonstrations for the DoD and the Transportation Safety Administration (TSA)
where AXCESS proved the dramatic reduction in cost of managing facility
operations where secured areas exist through the use of RFID, the solution is
presently ready for commercial sale. AXCESS will be exhibiting the solution
in booth #710 for the duration of the show.
The RFID solution uses long range personnel cards which are the exact size
and form factor of standard access control cards. The cards have an embedded
battery and electronics to automatically track, in a hands-free mode (or
without any human intervention), personnel as they move throughout a facility.
When worn by personnel, the RFID cards can be activated on-demand (called
semi-active operation) at doors or at virtual entrances to areas and provide
their exact location and direction.
The system includes security authorization levels which can be changed
dynamically, by time of day, for example. Card data is reported over the
standard enterprise network to the OnlineSupervisor(TM) enterprise database
and software system. Card data is compared with business rules and, if a
location violation is found, initiates wireless alerts that are sent to
security personnel. The system includes a visual location presentation on the
facility floor plan. Optionally, live video can be integrated with each tag
event for more rapid and accurate response. It can also integrate recorded
video clips linked to each incident. The full automated system includes a full
reporting package to support compliance with government and enterprise
reporting requirements of the most stringent magnitude.
RFID World is the nation's largest industry event focused on RFID
technology and applications. Thousands of attendees will be meeting with
exhibitors looking for RFID solutions that meet their business requirements.
AXCESS' patented ActiveTag(TM) RFID systems use small, battery powered
tags (generically called "semi-active" tags) that when automatically
activated, transmit a wireless message typically 30 to 100 feet to hidden palm
size receivers. The receivers are connected via standard network
simultaneously to the enterprise system software, the existing security alarm
equipment, and standalone management software. Optionally, the tag system can
be used to trigger security video recording and live remote video
transmission. The tags are used for a variety of enterprise productivity
applications including automatic personnel access control and tracking,
automatic vehicle access control and payload management, automatic asset
management and protection, as well as special purpose sensing. Automatic email
alerting and paging is offered for rapid response to security related
incidents. More information is available from the company's web site at
