| RFID | Barcode | |
| Read Rate | High throughput. Multiple (>100) tags can be read simultaneously. | Very low throughput. Tags can only be read manually, one at a time. |
| Line of Sight | Not required. Items can be oriented in any direction, as long as it is in the read range, and direct line of sight is never required. | Definitely required. Scanner must physically see each item directly to scan, and items must be oriented in a very specific manner. |
| Human Capital | Virtually none. Once up and running, the system is completely automated. | Large requirements. Laborers must scan each tag. |
| Read/Write Capability | More than just reading. Ability to read, write, modify, and update. | Read only. Ability to read items and nothing else. |
| Durability | High. Much better protected, and can even be internally attached, so it can be read in very harsh environments. | Low. Easily damaged or removed; cannot be read if dirty or greasy. |
| Security | High. Difficult to replicate. Data can be encrypted, password protected, or include a “kill” feature to remove data permanently, so information stored is much more secure. | Low. Much easier to reproduce or counterfeit. |
| Event Triggering | Capable. Can be used to trigger certain events (like door openings, alarms, etc.). | Not capable. Cannot be used to trigger event |
Vital to successful operations is the availability of clean working equipment for clinical procedures and patient treatment. When clinical needs for resources are satiated you can achieve efficient patient work flow. TrackStar allows optimum management of equipment resources to support nurses and other caregivers, maximizing results and efficient movement of patients throughout your facility.
tekTRACK can help facilitate all the necessary routine checks to ensure a safe and comfortable environment exists within the four walls. For example, inspection audits can be tracked for boiler safety, fire extinguisher and fire hose compliance.
tekTRACK can facilitate workflow for patient admissions, and discharge leading to better bed utilization. Because TrackStar handles the patient tracking it can automate discharge by having procedures that validate patient departure and automatically alert others such as housekeeping that a room can be cleaned and made ready for the next patient.

Even manufacturers that have semi automated the process using bar code scanners find that workers often forget to scan some parts or circumvent the system for other reasons. tekMAZ’ tekTRACK platform is well suited to solving these problems and proves manufacturers with data to populate a information dashboard and ports to better manage assembly automation, track plant floor assets, and manage inventory by integrating applications inside and outside the company, as well as externally with customers and suppliers. The API allows the information to be transferred to the existing monitoring systems without any human interferences.
Automates data tracking for real time improvements and inventory management loading and delivery.
Fixed readers on fork lifts and dock doors eliminate manual data and operator error, increasing loading efficiency by 50% and pick-ticket accuracy by 100%
Smart bin ( RFID tagged containers) loading determines optimum inventory location, directs material handling personnel on where to place finished goods; fast moving inventory may be loaded closer to the dock to cut fork lift time.
Automatically generates pick list and bill of lading.
RFID interrogator verifies order accuracy and updates inventory as product leaves the factory.
Dramatically speeds up physical inventory.
Eliminates orphaned parts and mis-shipments which require expensive additional handling and other costs to correct.
tekTRACK can ensure that product is automatically registered as it passes through RFID equipped read zones on its way from the back room, to the sales floor, the cash register and home with the shopper. By authenticating that process, it is now possible to use that knowledge to reject returns that represent fraudulent claims by professional organizations to defraud retailers.
Brand authentication technology is an elegant and extremely effective method for ensuring that high value items are legitimate and not cheap knock offs
tekTRACK offers a range of tags that can be attached to pipe, elbows, flow meters and other components found in the infrastructure of the oil and gas industry. These tags can with stand high temperatures and rusty conditions. These tags have the capability to store calibration points and maintenance history thereby providing prompt inspections and more informed, on the spot repair decisions to keep production running at peak capacity.
tekTRACK offers data to construct a reaction wizard that can be used to quickly locate workers and instantly spot and respond to potential man down situations. It can provide an audit trail for all key activity in the field. The whereabouts of workers deployed in the field and the status of their certifications for health and safety plus occupational skills can also be monitored and recorded. Using the tracking system at any given time the resources can be identified and directed.
