In addition to our work with industry-standard electronic toll collection equipment from manufacturers like Kapsch, Transcore, Neology, and others, E-Transit has pioneered the use of the latest EPC Gen 2 and ISO 18000-6C technologies for toll collection and parking control systems.
EPC Gen 2 and ISO 16000-6C RFID technologies were developed to establish standards for industrial and commercial RFID tag applications The current ratified standard operates in the ultrahigh frequency (UHF) range (860 – 960 MHz), supports operation at long distances (e.g., 25-30 feet) and is a true "open" technology with fully-interoperable tags and readers produced by dozens of companies. EPC Gen 2 readers and tags are extremely low cost (tags can cost as low $2.00 USD each!).
Tags are available in numerous form-factors, including exterior mounted tags, windshield or headlight sticker tags, portable rear-view mirror hang-tags, proximity cards and more. Proximity cards provide end-users and agencies more options, especially in environments where a vehicle is not a pre-requisite. For added flexibility, multi-protocol readers are available that can read both EPC Gen 2 and ISO 16000-6C RFID tags.
Mobile phones have also become an integrated solution for ETC/Access Control systems.
