From more and more reality shows using unmanned aerial photography to amazon's first launch of unmanned delivery of packages, to the recent announcement by Xinhua News Agency of the establishment of unmanned machine news gathering team... With the development of electronic technology, there are more and more USES of civil unmanned aircraft.


  RFID, once a military technology, gained new life after it was transferred to civilian use and blossomed in logistics, clothing, retail and other fields. Seem to have nothing to do with the two hot technology, and now come together, unmanned machine with RFID technology will rub out what kind of fireworks, to bring what kind of surprise?


  In 2013, a 15kg, 2.6-meter wingspan and 2.1-meter captain of a red "baby eagle 3A" successfully flew in dayi county of chengdu on July 12. This is China's first domestic RFID radio frequency technology with the help of unmanned aircraft technology and personnel positioning search and rescue combined with long-distance search technology. According to wang xuben, head of the project, the out-going personnel only need to carry beacons in advance and open the device in case of an emergency, search and rescue personnel can realize rapid positioning through low-frequency search, improve the efficiency of search and rescue, and change the traditional field search and rescue after the personnel appear missing aimless search pattern.


In addition to personnel search and rescue, German company Fraunhofer is developing a new inventory management system that will combine RFID technology with unmanned aircraft flying over warehouses to take stock. The RFID VOCS Scanner UR30, an RFID card reader that can read RFID tags from about 2.5m locations, has also been introduced by Japanese company dinso WAVE. The company has equipped the product with drones that can read RFID tags outdoors from the air.



In the wake of such a wave of drone applications, Trimble, a global vendor with decades of research in GPS technology development and practical applications, has recently launched a new generation of dual-port RFID readers, Sargas, that can be easily embedded in drones. Sargas reader is a compact UHF reader with high performance, networking and dual antenna ports. It has a tag reading distance of more than 9 meters (equipped with a suitable antenna) and a processing capacity of more than 750 tags per second.


  Meanwhile, Sargas has pioneered the integration of an HDMI interface into it. The built-in HDMI interface allows users to display processed data directly on an external display without the need for additional external hardware. This design can greatly save the cost of RFID deployment and shorten the system on-line time.
