RFID Industry Standards
Savi is known for its leadership in creating a single, global standard for active RFID. Until recently, customers had to choose between many non-interoperable and proprietary active RFID technologies. Now, customers can insist on a standards-based architecture which will make investing in active RFID applications easier and less expensive.
The ISO 18000-7 RFID protocol standard is highly significant to all RFID companies because it is central to the growth of RFID's benefits in supply chain asset tracking and other applications.
Recently, Savi joined over 20 other technology companies to form the DASH7 Alliance, an industry consortium with the mission of improving interoperability among ISO 18000-7 certified devices, as well as to promote and expand the ISO 18000-7 standard.
Another global standard relative to RFID companies is ISO 18185, which covers electronic cargo seals (e-Seals). E-Seals are an emerging class of active RFID devices with built-in security and tracking features that enhance visibility, security and efficiency of in-transit cargo containers.
Savi is an active proponent of both standards and offers licensing programs for both ISO 18000-7 and ISO 18185 in an effort to drive international adoption of the standards.

Famous quotes containing the words industry and/or standards:
“The Founding Fathers in their wisdom decided that children were an unnatural strain on parents. So they provided jails called schools, equipped with tortures called an education. School is where you go between when your parents can’t take you and industry can’t take you.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“Our ego ideal is precious to us because it repairs a loss of our earlier childhood, the loss of our image of self as perfect and whole, the loss of a major portion of our infantile, limitless, ain’t-I-wonderful narcissism which we had to give up in the face of compelling reality. Modified and reshaped into ethical goals and moral standards and a vision of what at our finest we might be, our dream of perfection lives on—our lost narcissism lives on—in our ego ideal.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
