Patent attributes
A radio frequency identification (RFID) portal easily installs and integrates any RFID hardware/software systems. The RFID portal may match the size of a traditional dock or be custom sized. The portal takes advantage of a variety of unique features including an antenna bracket that provides for three-dimensional vertical and horizontal movements and a hardware independent reader bracket. The antenna movement capabilities allow for excellent RFID signal coverage. A General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) bridge enables rapid integration and functionality to other RFID inputs such as Motion Detectors/Photo Eyes, Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS), Wireless Networking, floor loops, mass detectors, and output signals, such as to light stacks and RFID readers.
