RFID And Bar Code Readers: Trakkers Unveils 'mi', The Industry's First Handheld Lead Capture Unit With Integrated Magnetic Stripe, RFID, And Bar Code Readers With GPRS Capability

Trakkers, LLC, a leading provider of lead retrieval equipment to the trade show industry, announces the availability of the industry's first hand-held, lightweight, battery operated unit with 3 different built-in readers to support magnetic cards, RFID technology, and both 2D and 1D barcodes. The "mi" offers users greater wireless flexibility by eliminating the need for multiple readers for different media types. This innovative device offers full GPRS capability enabling users to have real-time access to their leads.

The "mi" integrated barcode reader supports 1D (JAN, EAN, Code 39, EAN 128) and 2D (QR Code, PDF417, DataMartix) barcodes. The built-in 13.56 MHz RFID scanner transmits data from any ISO 15693 and ISO 14443 RFID tag. "mi's" magnetic card reader can read triple track "IntelliHead", with AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and wide range of card swipe speeds – from 3 ips to 100 ips (7 cm/s to 250 cm/s). "mi" also features quad-band GSM/EGPRS modem for real time connectivity so that captured leads are transmitted wirelessly to myzebi.com, Trakkers' web portal, providing quick and easy lead retrieval and lead management.

"With the ‘mi,' companies now have access to a flexible and reliable wireless device that can scan most media types at an event," said Harish Chander, CEO, Trakkers. "Moreover, ‘mi' gives exhibitors instant access to their leads at myzebi.com for quick follow up from anywhere in the world."

"mi" is a small and innovative reader that is ideal for tradeshows, event management, security and access control, as well as cashless payments, point-of-sale and library applications.
