2 Una nuova tecnologia: I TAGs RFID Contactless Automatic Identification Esiston o diverse tipologie di TAG: TAG passivi: no batteria (energia proviene dal reader, convertita dall antenna) Basse frequenze125khz, Mhz (60% del mercato), 868/956Mhz (UHF) Memoria: 64bit ROM, 1 Kbit EEPROM Raggio d azione: < 10 m Problematiche: raggio limitato, nessuna funzionalita extra TAG attivi: dotati di una alimentazione interna Frequenze tipiche: 433Mhz, 868/956Mhz (UHF), 2.45 o 5.8 Ghz Memoria: EEPROM da 8 a 32 Kbit (veloci progressi ) Raggio d azione: fino a 100, 150m Problematiche: dimensioni, consumo, costi Trasmettitore nel tag TAG semi-attivi: dotati di una alimentazione interna I TAG si compongono di 4 elementi: 2 Chip: memoria che contiene le informazioni relative all oggetto fisico sul quale e applicato Antenna: riceve e trasmette le informazioni Packaging: contiene e protegge il chip e l antenna Condensatore: Viene caricato dal reader ed opera poi come batteria Fonte Innovation Center

3 Come lavora un sistema RFID? 3 Tag Gli Item hanno I tag associati o incorporati I Tag sono attivati da un lettore e con tale energia trasmettono il loro ID e/o le loro informazioni Antenna L antenna trasmettitore e progettata per 2 scopi: trasmettere energia verso i TAG, di ricevre l ID trasmesso dal Tag. Il posizionamento dell antenna risulta critico nei casi di letture in short range Reader I Readers possono operare tipicamente con 4-8 antenne al fine di ottimizzare la copertura Rilevano la presenza del TAG RFID. Ricevono l ID e lo inviano al middleware Middleware Application Server Interfacia e controlla I Readers e processa le informazioni raccolte (buffering and filtering). Introduce le associazioni tra prodotti e locations. Opera aggregazione di informazioni. Crea oggetti di business da inviare alle applicazioni di Back-End. Supply chain execution Backend SCE or ERP. Ricevono le informazioni e eseguiono pianificazioni logistiche Esempio di SCE: - Upates inventory - Notifies shipment arrival - Triggers procurement

4 HP RFID Internal Adoption RFID impacts businesses, operations and Customers in all Regions. Therefore program scope is global and pan HP in nature Commercial sites Retail sites 4 September HP sites now RFID capable 6 more in progress

5 The HP Memphis Pallet pilot The HP Chester Plant pilot The Site Pilot Team kicked off during the first week in August 2003 At Post Pilot Review Sponsors decided to roll out processes across the entire site The Implementation Team kicked off during the first week in August 2003 Chester receives inkjet cartridges in bulk and packages them for different markets and Customers They are starting at pallet and case level outbound and will then walk back up the process chain to Receiving Merged Sao Paolo HP printer plant The HP Memphis Case pilot The Case Pilot Team kicked off during the first week in August 2003 Pallet Team recommended piloting at case level to gain operational efficiencies in the Shipping operation We are also working with our large Retailers to synchronize our efforts with their own pilots The Site Pilot Team kicked off during the first week in September 2003 Sao Palo receive components and raw material and perform the full range of manufacturing and completion processes, shippingfinished goods to Customer in the Latin America Region TSG Review - Nov 4th HP Company Confidential They are starting at pallet and case level outbound and will then walk back up the process chain to Receiving

6 I 5 ruoli di HP nell RFID Standards leader HP è membro del EPC Global Inc e partecipa alla definizione degli std internazionali Market provider HP fornisce prodotti dotati di tag RFID Innovation I Lab HP ricercano e studiano soluzioni tecnologiche innovative Utente HP adotta soluzioni con tecnologia RFID nelle proprie operations Service provider Servizi di consulenza e integrazione b ai clienti che implementano soluzioni RFID Le aree di sinergia: TAGS providers, Hardware vendors, Middleware vendors, Esperienza e competenze, Standards, Comunicazioni ext,.. 6

8 HP RFID Centres of Exellence Regional RFID centres EMEA: Milano, Italy v Focus: Traceability, Logistics, Asset Management, HealthCare AP: Taiwan, Singapur v Focus: HighTech, Consumer Electronics, Healthcare Americas: 3 sites v Focus: architecture development; ISV mgmt; HPLabs: applied research HP Operation & IT competence centre: Sao Paulo, Brazil - factory/distribution centre of the future concept: v Focus: RFID for end-to-end supply chain optimization Applying RFID on product level to manage product life-cycle v Gen 2 early adopter Coordination by WW RFID Steering Committee 8

9 HP RFID Centres of Exellence RFID assessments & workshops focused on IT asset management and maintenance, supply chain tracing and tracking, Returnable Assets tracking, Logistic Execution. Project delivery activities on system integration related with RFID. Solutions packaging. Ex. StaRFID, a platform to manage pallets movements (outbound/inbound) in RF warehouses with integration on WMS and ERP. Know how on Logistic Execution (at the moment focused on SAP WM and decentralized warehouse management) Support Italy and EMEA on pre-sale activities related with our core competencies Demo capabilities available for Italy and EMEA region Testing lab for RFID and new technologies equipment (Alien, Tyco, Zebra, Printronix, Psion, others) Joint initiative on RFID with Politecnico Milan Events and training organization with Italian or EMEA scope 9
