RFID Technology for Warehouses & Inventories

Traditional information systems depend to a large extent upon the accurate entry of
information into the system - updating current location of material as they are moved,
and manually recording incoming and outgoing material from the warehouse. RFID is one
of the most exciting and versatile technologies to emerge in recent times - and has a
powerful set of features ideally suited for automating warehousing & inventory
management.

How can RFID Help?

RFID will allow you to be able to automatically control and manage your entire
Warehouse without the element of error-prone manual inputs, bringing new efficiencies
into your operation. Once your warehouse is RFID enabled, the system can not only
detect material when they are leaving (or entering) the facility, but also track them as they are moved around within your warehouse - without any form to be filled out by the
operator. This gives you much more dynamic control of your warehouse - allowing you
to optimize placement and material movement at will, without the overheads of manual
tracking and information entry. INVeNTRA does not replace your current inventory
management (or warehouse) IT Solution - it integrates with it, providing it with the upto-
date information on material location and movement - that would otherwise have to
be updated manually. It reduces the errors associated with material tracking, and allows
you to locate any material instantaneously.

INVeNTRA

INVeNTRA is an integrated RFID enabled warehouse managment solution, based on the
ARIES framework.The ARIES system is an RFID Middleware, which collects information
through a sensory network of RFID sensors throughout your facility. It provides an
enterprise level RFID controllability and integration with your access control, inventory,
and other IT systems. These RFID sensors will installed at each entry/exit point in your
facility - and connected to the central ARIES controller. ARIES will be interfaced with your
existing access control systems. You may also use the iNVeNTRA Visualizer for visual
feedback of your entire facility.
INVeNTRA provides you with an effective way to :

Increase efficiency of key processes

Decrease inventory

Decrease loss of data and assets

Locate articles in the warehouse

Improve visibility of the entire process

Provide hard data for continuous improvement
