摘要： In some embodiments, a first indication that a first antenna, of multiple antennas, has received data from a first tag coupled to an asset is received. The antennas are coupled to an interior housing within a logistics vehicle. A second indication that a second antenna, of the antennas, has received the data from the first tag is also received. Based at least in part on the receiving of the first indication and the receiving of the second indication, a location within the logistics vehicle that asset is located in is detected. In response to the detecting of the location, a control signal is transmitted that causes a user device or apparatus to indicate that the asset is located within an area associated with the location.

摘要： Described herein are systems and method for determining a presence and/or type of an object positioned on a platform. The system may include: a tag reader configured to determine a type of an object, the object including a tag readable by the tag reader; a load cell configured to detect the presence of the object on a platform, the object having a known weight; and the platform including at least one face for receiving the object. The platform is communicatively coupled to the load cell and the tag reader. The presence of the object is detected by the load cell housed in the platform when the object is position on the at least one face of the platform. The type of the object is determined by the tag reader housed in the platform when the object is in physical proximity to the platform.

摘要： A wireless tag reading system including a frame, two or more antennas installed to the frame, and a turntable rotatable with respect to the frame. The turntable is adapted to support thereon an object containing one or more electronic tags. The turntable is adapted to rotate the object with respect to the two or more antennas, so that at least one of the two or more antennas is configured to read the one or more electronic tags at more than one distance, orientation, or phase. By rotating the object to vary the distance and/or orientation from the tags to the antennas, all the tags on the object can be scanned and correctly read by the wireless tag reader.
