Unique Micro Design (UMD) provides engineering ICT solutions in RFID. This reflects our ability to design, manufacture, select and integrate RFID technologies in intelligent sensor network solutions.

UMD provides products and services in:

• RFID Passive and Active tags (LF, HF, UHF and Microwave)
• RFID Inserts
• RFID Fixed Readers
• RFID Hand Held Readers
• Mobile Computing Devices with Inbuilt RFID
• RFID Data Capture Networks
• RFID Site Surveys and Installation
• Custom development of RFID Devices and Interfaces
• Architectural systems design and implementation
• RFID Workshops

UMD have access to an extensive range of RFID Vendors. This is also complimented by UMD's own agencies which it distributes from the following suppliers:

• bluechiip - Extreme environment RFID tags
• ClaryID - Tags & engineering
• CSL - Long Range UHF readers
• Intermec Technologies - a global leader in RFID
• Intelleflex - Battery Assisted Tags
• Feig - Readers
• FerroxTags - HF tags
• Motorola (formally Symbol) - Readers and Tags
• Sick - Industrial Readers
• SkyeTek - low cost HF & UHF RFID Modules for mobile and embedded applications
• Sunbest - RFID standard and custom tags
• Texas Instruments - LF technology
• UMD - engineering ICT solutions
• Wireless Dynamics - SD Card based Readers

As RFID represents a range of technologies no single RFID vendor (and tag) can provide a solution to fit all applications. Thus access to a broad range of technology offerings is important.

Furthermore, UMD's engineering ICT solutions capability is well suited to RFID implementation, as RFID solutions need to be engineered. For example, consideration needs to be given to:

• Physics of tags, readers, and materials
• Environmental considerations
• Type and placement of tags
• Data management
• Business process re-engineering
• Interfaces and sensors, just to name a few.

UMD's RFID offering is provisioned through its Business Solutions Team" which provides RFID solutions design, deployment and support services to Systems Integrators.
