Proximity Tags
Birkeland Current Proximity Tags are active radio frequency identifiers and can be either a physical device or software application for BLE enable devices. Customized form factors, labeling, and smart phone applications are availalble.
Key Fob
The Proximity Tag Key Fob is either carried by a person or attached to an object. It includes our 915 MHz radio which transmits an identification packet specific to its carrier. It can be carried discretely in a purse, pocket, or backpack or can be attached to a mobile object such as a pallet, medical device, or chair. The PTag is utilized best when it is always carried by its owner for Real-Time Location Services and for taking advantage of individualized preferences in the SPS and Dimmer products. The PTag can optionally come with buttons for dimming and changing LED preferences. Buttons can also be used to change the tag transmit and receive frequencies as well as to assign department numbers for roles such as human resources, security, housekeeping or maintenance.
