Published: June 11, 2009

SPARKS, MD | The ability to create RFID track-and-trace solutions instantly, under the most challenging environments where peoples' lives may be at risk, earned AiRISTA a spot in the 2009 edition of the 10 Leading RFID Innovators publication by RFID Switchboard. Being able to set up this system in an ad-hoc manner at the site of an incident is recognized as a major innovation.

AiRISTA's technology-agnostic approach enables RFID to work seamlessly with different technologies, while offering the robustness and scalability needed to meet evolving demands. Upon arrival at a fire or other perilous situation, the system maps every aspect of the scene, incorporating GPS, an inertial measurement unit, an altimeter enabling indoor location accuracy, a long-range Real Time Location System and even streaming video to the RFID. AiRISTA's First Responder Technology Solution helps keep emergency personnel safe and working at peak efficiency. This is currently used by offshore oil rig platform crews and other entities operating in unpredictable environments.
