Innovative applications of RFID
Crystal innovative applications of RFID technology introduced - the remote control battery-free RFID
Following the launch ultra high frequency radio identification tags (UHF RFID Tag) IC, the Crystal Technology (stock code: 3535) to re-introduce innovative applications of RFID, the use of UHF RFID technology, energy saving features developed the world's first "free RFID remote control batteries "will be applied to all the remote control of home appliances.
Has long been home appliances such as TV, VCD / DVD recorder, audio, karaoke OK, air conditioning, are using the infrared wireless remote control operation, while the most common IR remote control batteries with two 3A According to statistics, every year the number of the remote control batteries billions of stars, enough to circle around the earth four and a half, so the infrared wireless remote control has become a major global environmental burden.
Crystal use RFID technology, RFID technology is designed remote control, the biggest feature is the low energy, battery-free, and non-directional characteristics, the remote control does not need to be able to operate a visual straight line, so the operating point of view and can be greatly through a barrier remote control to operate high degrees of freedom; In addition, the use of an RFID that can remote control the remote control all audio and video products, home appliances, greatly increasing the convenience of operation. Finally, RFID remote control and a small thickness of the battery, can be designed smaller to changing shape, but also significantly improve product design freedom.
Recently, the characteristics of non-directional wireless radio frequency (RF) remote control technologies become an important development, a variety of high-end electronic products has been gradually equipped with RF remote control, such as the Sony BRAVIA Series LCD TV in with the RF remote control, the remote control interface with ZigBee (IEEE802.15.4) specifications for wireless transmission, wireless frequency 2.4GHz band; Wii and PS3, the use of remote RF Bluetooth technology, wireless 2.4GHz frequency band also. However, these RF wireless (RF) technology and ultra-high frequency RFID technology in comparison, is still quite power, and was not designed for battery-free form.
Crystal RFID technology has been completed using the remote control the development of UHF RFID IC, the RFID IC with remote control 433MHz UHF band, contains 4K-bit EEPROM memory, can resolve the remote control buttons 256 and simultaneously control 3 home appliances, remote control from up to 8 meters. The company also completed integration of IC and circuit board that contains the remote control module, will be 2008/10/7-11 in Taipei World Trade Center Nangang 『organized by the Taiwan International RFID Applications Show 2008』 formally exhibited for visitors remote control to fully experience the advantages of RFID.
Focus on the earth make a contribution to environmental protection, said it would fully Favite battery-free RFID remote extension to replace the current mainstream infrared remote control, remote batteries to reduce the environmental damage on the Earth, but also increase the ease of use the remote control sex. It is estimated that the remote control up to 100 million market, more than a month, the initial marketing strategy of the company will co-brand manufacturers of home appliances, is currently working with a number of important world brand LCD TV vendors to do the detailed discussions of technology integration, free RFID batteries in the remote control will soon appear before the world.
