Professional RFID Solutions Provider
We specialize in commercial applications and custom development of RFID technology, offering one-stop solutions from consulting and development to deployment and maintenance for clients across various industries.
Project Origin
In karting events, traditional manual timing is prone to errors and inefficient. To solve this, we developed this automated timing system based on the CF-815 UHF RFID Reader.
The system automatically identifies karts crossing the finish line via RFID technology, coupled with a carefully designed 10-second anti-shake algorithm, ensuring accurate counting for every lap even at high speeds.
After multiple iterations and field testing, the system creates stable support for 20 concurrent karts, providing real-time visualization, audio feedback, and complete data recording.
Development Timeline
