My boss used to work for Jackson County in MO and at their prison, they recently installed a system that makes all of the inmates wear barcodes. Every time they leave an area, they are checked out and if they don't make it to the next area within the alloted time, security is notified. It is all RFID.

The data is formatted similarly to a PDF 417 bar code if your familiar with 2-D symbologies. The tags will carry up to 1 or 2 K of data and are read-write. The Maine Turnpike uses similar technology to manage toll accounts. You can buy toll access at a discounted rate ($50 worth of travel for $40) and the RFID device decrements whenever you enter the highway. An LCD warns you when you're low on cash. Commercial accounts carry no cash, the transactions build up on the host and you get a monthly bill for travel. Like my snow blower, when it's working, it's the best thing since sliced bread. mit freundlichen Grüßen / best regards Steve Ropiak [EMAIL PROTECTED] office (207) 989-9115 cell (513) 314-0197 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 3:18 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Happy Birthday to email very cool. We were toying with membership ID's to simplify checkin at events. Eventually membership discounts could be implemented between members. I've heard of pilot programs started in some cities where the Mobil Speedpasses can be used to buy food at McDonalds. -----Original Message----- From: Ropiak Steve - NAO Florence Office Exchange and Bar Code Admn.

Then, when there's a recall, they can easily figure out where the bad tires went. We're considering doing the same thing in our transmissions and other key components we produce. No concrete plan yet, just a lot of ideas. mit freundlichen Grüßen / best regards Steve Ropiak [EMAIL PROTECTED] office (207) 989-9115 cell (513) 314-0197 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 3:05 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Happy Birthday to email Cool.
