ATLANTA -- Ending the wait for more robust, powerful ultra high frequency radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, a wide array of Class 1, Generation 2 Electronic Product Code hardware, software and services were introduced at this week's EPCglobal conference, here, that should help manufacturers begin to assemble the infrastructure needed to build and deploy next generation auto-ID networks. Gen 2 is said to carry more data and operate better in dense reader environments in addition to offering memory locking and kill capabilities (see related story on Gen 2 certification for more details). "Gen 2 will help with some read issues that have been experienced with RFID to date," noted Kathy Smith, a special assistant with the U.S. Department of Defense, which has mandated use of RFID tech for suppliers.
