Vendeka’s new RFID reader is said to be the world’s fastest

Turkish company 1760 Vendeka has launched what it says is the world’s fastest RFID reader.

“With security authentication, other readers can make seven or eight ‘reads’ per second,” said system design engineer Mehmet Çağlar. “This reader can do more than 14.”

New software is the secret behind the VNK-PR reader, which can also read tags moving at 220km/h.

Another advantage: “If we compare this with DSRC readers, passive RFID is much cheaper,” added Çağlar.
