CribMaster, a division of Stanley Black and Decker, has combined its existing passive RFID tracking technology for the industrial market with Wi-Fi-based active RFID tags and real-time location system (RTLS) software. The Live Tracking solution enables product manufacturers, mine operators and other users of CribMaster’s storage cabinets to identify the real-time location of assets and personnel. Learn how a staff member can wear an active badge indicating his or her identity, as well as authorized activities linked to the badge’s unique ID number. The worker could then check out a tool from a CribMaster cabinet using the badge ID. CribMaster software would be updated to indicate the worker had removed that item. If it was not returned, management could access the CribMaster software to identify who had that asset, use the RTLS data from the badge to determine where the employee was located, and proceed to that location to retrieve the tool.
