RFID Research Intermec NASA Collaborate
NASA and Intermec will collaborate to research new automated identification technology, such RFID that can function on space vehicles. Tests are planned to verify the application of RFID to parts identification. The Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., is one of NASA's largest and most diversified installations. ...
... "Intermec announced a cooperative research effort with the NASA George C. Marshall Space Flight Center to investigate new Automatic Identification Tracking (AIT) System technologies. New technologies to be developed will qualify machine-readable symbol markings and RFID devices for use on space-borne vehicles.
Intermec also will prepare additional marked samples and soft and rigid RFID tags to be included in MISSE 6, scheduled for July 2007. The part identification markings and tags - which remain readable after exposure to the extreme levels of ultraviolet radiation, atomic oxygen, hard vacuum, and contamination in low earth orbit - will be evaluated and then certified for use on future space vehicles and added to NASA's part identification requirements.
