Intermec has bagged yet another major RFID deal this month. After reaching out an agreement with NASA to provide its RFID products for the test of this technology in outer space, Intermec is now selected by software giant Microsoft to supply its RFID hardware for the Microsoft Technology Centers in America.
The Microsoft Technology Centers has been widely recognized as the major research centers where enterprises and independent software vendor customers envisage, architect and evaluate technology solutions before using them in their IT environment.
Microsoft explains,
Intermec has a deep and broad understanding and its value to the retail, industrial, transportation and logistics customers, so they were a natural choice to bring technology to Center visitors.
As agreed by two companies, Intermec would provide its CV60 vehicle-mounted computers, IV7 vehicle-mounted RFID readers and IA33E RFID antennas for the deployment in real-world RFID scenarios at Microsoft Technology Centers in Austin, Reston, Va., Chicago, Boston, Silicon Valley and New York.
