Cambridge, Mass. and Mississauga, ON, Canada (PRWEB) March 28, 2006 -- TAGSYS, the global leader in item-level RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) infrastructure, and PSION TEKLOGIX (LSE: PON), a global provider of solutions for mobile computing, wireless data collection, imaging and RFID, today announced that the companies are collaborating to offer portable RFID terminals designed for the distribution and logistics industries.
Combining the two companies’ knowledge and expertise in data capture and RFID, PSION TEKLOGIX and TAGSYS will integrate TAGSYS’ RFID OEM modules into a selection of PSION TEKLOGIX HandHeld terminals, including the WORKABOUT PRO. The combination of TAGSYS RFID technology and PSION TEKLOGIX’s mobile computing offer make for a rugged, fully-integrated product range of mobile hand-held RFID readers combined with scanning, imaging and wireless communication options.
