Lake
Forest, Calif. —October 23, 2006 – Vue Technology, the leading provider of item-level RFID
solutions, today announced that EPCglobal Inc™ has awarded its software
certification mark to the newly announced third generation TrueVUE™ RFID Platform for
item-level retail initiatives. EPCglobal Inc. is the not-for-profit standards organization
dedicated to driving global adoption of the Electronic Product Code™ (EPC) for
supply chain excellence. Vue Technology provides end-to-end solutions for item-level
tracking throughout the supply chain.
The certification mark ensures
that EPC/RFID software products have been tested and will work in predictable
ways when processing data from Gen2 tags. The mark is awarded by the EPCglobal Software
Certification Program, a standards-based compliance testing program that
provides a neutral and authoritative source for testing EPC/RFID software and
providing information regarding certified products and the vendors who
manufacture them.
“EPCglobal’s certification is
another testament to Vue Technology’s commitment to providing leading-edge
technologies that deliver business value to item level initiatives,” said
Robert Locke, CEO of Vue Technology. “We have just announced the third
generation of our RF networking platform and product line and continue to lead
the industry with proven solutions that produce measurable ROI for retailers.”
“By choosing software with an
EPCglobal Software Compliance Certification Mark, the end-user can be confident
that the software will perform according to defined EPCglobal standards,” said Chris
Adcock, president of EPCglobal Inc. “With this information readily available,
they will have more time to focus their resources on completing pilots and
capturing information.”
To receive the software
certification mark, the TrueVUE RFID Platform had to pass rigorous testing conducted
by MET Laboratories, a third-party, nationally-recognized testing facility
located in Baltimore, Maryland
in the United States.
The mark is a stylized form of the EPCglobal logo and includes an 18-digit
Global Service Relation Number (GSRN) that is globally unique to that specific
software product.
A listing of certified software
products, vendor profiles, and other resources are available to EPCglobal US Subscribers.
