How does RFID work?
The most versatile method is to store a serial number that identifies an object or person, and other information, on a microchip that is attached to an antenna. The antenna enables the chip to transmit the identification information to a reader. The reader converts the radio waves reflected back from the RFID tag into digital information that can then be passed on to software that can make use of it.

AMR - Automatic Meter Reading (end to end AMR solution working on RFid) :
AMR is a wireless data collection system comprising of variety of elements and provides an easy solution for walk-by/drive-by rounds for variety of utility service providers. Meters can be read at any time and by simply walking by them or driving by them using wireless technology and the collected data can be exported / integrated with billing/CRM applications.
- Automates utility meter reading
- Electricity, Gas, Water
- Wireless attachment to existing meter - mFlow
- Capture meter data wirelessly
- Walk-by
- In-Vehicle
- Real-time and batch mode update to central server
- Pre-defined route path

Functionality :
A small battery powered radio transmitter will be installed on the meter at your home or business. Once the transmitter has been installed on your meter, we will be able to accurately and efficiently read your meter from a specially equipped vehicle. As the vehicle drives by your home or business, the system in the vehicle sends a "wake- up" signal
to the radio transmitter on your meter. The transmitter receives this signal and sends meter reading data back to the system in the vehicle
