AeroScout's new T3 RFID tag, which communicates over WiFi networks and features simple response buttons for answering calls, will be on the market in the middle of 2007. These tags, examples of a new generation of enhanced RFID systems, are designed to allow for patient, physical asset, or employee tracking throughout a facility, with the buttons providing programmed responses when the status of the tagged asset changes. The tags, smaller and thinner than the current series, will communicate using Cisco Compatible Extensions in a standard WiFi network.
