Intermec Releases Microsoft BizTalk RFID Mobile Deployment Kit

Intermec (IN) announced the release of an Intermec Device Deployment Kit to support Microsoft BizTalk RFID Mobile, making mobile RFID solutions easier for customers and partners to develop, deploy and manage.

The deployment kit for BizTalk RFID Mobile extends the management and event processing experience to mobile devices and allows for communication between a server and mobile platforms. Additionally, it gives Microsoft software integration partners the tools that developers need to quickly and easily build plug-and-play vertical market applications.

Intermec offers partners seamless integration with BizTalk RFID for the CN3 and CK61 mobile computers with the IP30 snap-on RFID reader, as well as the CV30 fixed vehicle computer with the IV7 vehicle mount RFID reader.

Microsoft BizTalk RFID Mobile, a platform for Windows Mobile and Windows CE, consists of a run-time engine and tools and components to develop, deploy and manage RFID solutions on mobile devices. Customers can now integrate both fixed and mobile RFID readers into common business processes through the same interface, providing a comprehensive end-to-end platform supporting the following features:

• Bar code scanning
• Pull-trigger events
• Storing and forwarding tag events, improving reliability in the case of intermittent network connections
• Remote configuration and administration of handheld devices via the Microsoft LLRP provider
