Receives Certification for its Multi-Protocol, Multi-Frequency RFID Reader
Company able to sell RFID products off-the-shelf throughout North America and Europe Stock Symbol: SMY:ME Montreal Exchange
TORONTO, Jan. 11 /CNW/ - SAMSys Technologies Inc. (SMY:ME): SAMSys Technologies Inc. ("the Company") announced today that the certification process required for sale of its recently announced patent filing for a Multi-Protocol, Multi-Frequency Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader product, has been successfully completed. The Company's proprietary and industry leading RFID reader product known as the Interrogator Control Module ("ICM"), has completed verification testing as a Class A Digital Device and is in compliance with the US Agency Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Part 15 Sub part B and CISPR22 A. In addition, the ICM has been successfully tested for Electromagnetic Compatibility and Immunity, and Generic Immunity and complies with the European Standard EN 50082.1 (1997). With these tests successfully completed the ICM may now be sold (for non residential use) in both North America and Europe. Furthermore the Company also reports that Hamel Davidson Corporation, its' principal technical development contractor and manufacturer has recently become ISO-9001 certified. Accordingly, the Company's products may also be offered with the same certification. "This event truly marks the dawn of a new era for the Company", said Cliff Horwitz, the company's Chairman and C.E.O. "For the first time since our inception, we now have a product which can legally be sold off-the-shelf to end users. To have achieved full certification for both North America and Europe at first submission is a tribute to the professionalism and skill of our technical development team. This is the breakthrough for which we have been waiting, as it basically provides us the wherewithal to commence generation of sales revenues." "When taken in conjunction with the extremely significant competitive advantage which we have created through the design and development of the product itself, we look forward to a year in which we will finally see the fulfillment of all of the promise which RFID has offered for so long", Horwitz continued. The ICM is the control unit, which manages both the communications protocols and the flow of data, which is exchanged between the tags and the reader. It supports the various RF modules, which supply power to the tags, both for reading data from the tag and writing new data to the tag. It is entirely modular, and frequency independent, thereby enabling for the first time, an operating environment wherein tags operating under a variety of manufacturer-specific protocols, and at any frequency, can be interrogated harmoniously within a single field simultaneously. The company recently announced the filing of a patent covering both the device itself, as well as the architecture supporting same. In the absence of worldwide standards, the Company believes that the availability of such a device dramatically enhances the willingness of end-users to implement RFID solutions, without fear of premature obsolescence.
