Randolph, MA -- Mike Plante, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Emerson & Cuming Microwave Products, Inc. will be a panelist, speaking on the technology and issues surrounding the topic of RFID on or near metal. The panel will discuss read on metal solutions, applications, and the business and market conditions associated with this topic. Emerson & Cuming Microwave Products is an industry leader in the development and manufacture of Radio Frequency interference products for a wide variety of commercial and military markets.

Historically, the adoption of passive RFID has been hindered by the technology's inability to perform on or near metals, but this is no longer the case. Recent material innovations and augmentations to existing products, such as EPC Gen 2 tags, now enable RFID to function in these environments without sacrificing performance and reinventing the wheel. Learn about these solutions and their implementations from a panel of experts who will cover the issue from every angle.

"We have compiled a group of industry leaders and innovators for read on metal RFID solutions that are sure to provide expertise and value" states Drew Nathanson, Panel Moderator and Director of Research at VDC Research Group, a leading technology market research and strategy firm. "Having industry leaders with experience developing, deploying, and supporting these solutions will provide expert knowledge of solutions and challenges associated with reading RFID on or around metal. Attendees are sure to leave with a better understanding of how the read on metal issue is no longer a problem."
