Growing mobile data traffic as we work from home, and rising business demand to connect devices in the Internet of Things are two upsides for an industry hit hard by the pandemic. But… well, you knew there had to be a ‘but’. One downside is rising fraud. It cost communication service providers US$28.3 billion according to the last CFCA global survey in 2019. BICS’ Mikael Schachne and Damion Rose, our guests on the latest Tech Trends Podcast tell us fraud is rising and they’re well placed to know. Can Machine Learning cut the risk? Jeremy Cowan and George Malim find out.

UHF RFID can effectively improve the data collection procedure, and its applications are using in a wide spectrum of industries. Our new product Chainway R5 Wearable BT RFID Reader can easily add UHF RFID functions to almost all smart devices, helping users easily expand UHF RFID functions. The users who only need to add a single UHF function do not need to replace the original equipment. It helps in incorporating RFID technology into the application category with less investment.
Chainway R5 device inbuilt with best performing UHF read & write. It uses the self-developed CM2000-1 UHF module based on Impinj Indy R2000. Thus, cover a wide range with fast and accurate tag reading. The maximum reading distance of RFID tags can reach 9 meters. The device offers type C USB and Bluetooth 4.o BLE functions to facilitate data communication for a user. It can be easily added to almost all Android/IOS smart devices for data capturing solutions in warehouse management and power inspection. Multi-industry applications such as inspection, asset management, and retail.
Chainway R5, specially designed for wearable, is equipped with a magnetic buckle wristband that makes it more convenient to wear, detach, and easy to use. It can help users to read electronic tags while allowing their hands to do other things simultaneously. The R5 not just capable to make the RFID application convenient, but also improves the working efficiency of front-line staff. For example, in logistics sorting, the staff can wear R5 on their wrists. When reading the tag attached to a package, they can also free up their hands to carry the goods. There is no need to pick up or put down the RFID reader. The whole operation process is smoother and saves a lot of working time.
Besides, Chainway company equips R5 with a 2000mAh removable battery, which is convenient for battery replacement and fast charging. It only takes 2 hours for a full charge and has a longer battery life. It is IP65 rated, waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, and can resist natural drops from a height of 1.2 meters. These features make the R5 device suitable for a variety of applications in various industries.
