Type 1 RFID SDK Characteristics

Windows Form part & Web Form part




Windows Form processes RFID tag info.
Windows Form UI embeds a Web Browser
Control.
RFID events trigger Web Browser Control,
and then trigger scenario-specific Web Form
Application processing.
Sample: WinDirect
• Processes RFID tag info and then calls
WebDirectSrv ASP.NET application.

Sample: WebDirectSrv
• Reads HTTP query string to show RFID tag ID.

Type 2 RFID SDK Characteristics


RFID active/passive readers are connected with LAN.
RFID middleware needed:

WiNOC Web application
• Manages tag accounts info and reader accounts info

Asset Tracking Manager service application
• Reads tag accounts info and reader accounts info
• Establishes connections with readers to:
• Collect raw tag data.
• Issue control commands to tags and readers.
• Parses raw tag data to events and stores events to database.

Open-source API for third-party applications to:



Manage tag accounts info and reader accounts info.
Get raw tag data and events.
Issue control commands to tags and readers.

Type 2 Open-Source API

Microsoft .NET Remoting Server
(Asset Tracking Manager)


.NET Remoting interface
Sample: TrackTagPosCS, TrackTagPosVB
• Calls Asset Tracking Manager to obtain realtime
tag positioning info and shows it in text.

Extension DLL


Realtime RFID event processing
Asset Tracking Manager plug-in
• Sample: RfidProcessorCS, RfidProcessorVB
• Run as Asset Tracking Manager plug-in DLLs.
14

Type 2 Open-Source API (cont.)

Microsoft SQL Server

Directly accessing RFID events stored in database
• Sample: WebDbView
• Web form application listing RFID events
• Sample: WinDbView
• Windows form application listing RFID events

WiNOC Asset Management API

Accessing RFID tag and reader info through WiNOC
Web application
• Sample: ApiTestWebCS, ApiTestWebVB
• Tests Web service-based WiNOC Asset Management API
• Sample: ShowTagPos
• Shows realtime tag positioning info on a location map.
• Sample: ShowTagCourse
• Plots historical tag moving courses on a location map.
