Impinj to showcase GrandPrix at RFID Conference

"Impinj's broad ecosystem of tag and solution providers made it easy for us to go with GrandPrix from the start of our latest RFID initiatives," says Stacey Shulman, CTO of American Apparel. "Because of that decision, we are now rolling out new business capabilities that would have been impossible otherwise. GrandPrix will give us a real advantage in the market."

Future generations of Impinj products will be compatible with the GrandPrix platform, including Speedway xArray, an advanced reader system designed for autonomous wide-area monitoring. When ceiling-mounted, xArray can accurately interrogate a 40-foot diameter area, utilizing an array of antenna beams to provide granular location information about tags in its field of view. Optimized to read many thousands of tags very quickly and to distinguish tags of interest from others in the field, xArray's low profile enclosure easily mounts in a single tile of a standard drop ceiling. xArray will be on display in the Impinj booth at the RFID Journal Live Conference.

"As results-driven P&L owners replace early adopters, we are moving from a technology-oriented market to a solution-oriented market," said Larry Arnstein, Vice President of Business Development for Impinj. "By expanding application capabilities well beyond the least common denominator provided by the Gen 2 protocol, our GrandPrix platform provides business leaders with more leverage from the same RFID investment."

To find out more about all the capabilities of the GrandPrix platform, be sure to visit Impinj in booth 204 at the 11th Annual RFID Journal Live Conference and Exhibition at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL April 30 through May 2.
