The new UHF EPC Gen 2 reader model XT-3 from 177 TagMaster, a long-range RFID reader, is designed for outdoor installations classified for IP-65 levels of ingression protection. It is built in a sturdy casing and designed to operate in all climatic conditions and temperatures ranging from - 30°C to +60°C.

The reader complies with the ISO 18000-6 type C standard, also called EPC Gen 2, and complies with regional regulations in terms of frequency range and output power.

There are two versions of the XT-3; one designed to US specification and one according to European specification. The same reader controller platform is used in this product model as in all TagMaster readers with a Linux operating system and a full range of communication interfaces is made available as standard. The same software applications used in all readers from TagMaster are supported in the XT-3 series to provide extensive functionality and interfaces. This makes integration to management systems and other equipment quick and easy.

While it was logical to use a common control room and to use the latest detection and monitoring systems in the new tunnel, it was deemed too disruptive and costly to completely upgrade the existing tunnel.

After many years of application in high-end solutions for the enforcement and tolling sectors, machine vision is gaining traction in more general areas of traffic management. Nevertheless, those OEMs producing transport-oriented solutions which incorporate machine vision and looking to increase the technology’s share of the ITS mar
