Smart. Access, with Authentication .& Monitoring: Mutelcor’s NFC RFID LoRa Button

If you’ve ever used the metro system, you’re likely familiar with the RFID-enabled metro card for station entry. This NFC RFID technology has revolutionized metro transportation and significantly impacted various industries, including workplaces, where RFID-enabled cards are prevalent. This technology continues to transform our daily lives. In the realm of automated buildings, NFC RFID technology is crucial for streamlining task management and improving service quality. The Mutelcor NFC RFID – LoRa Button exemplifies this advancement with its combination of NFC / RFID Technology for gathering information about an individual using the device, together with LoRa Technology to send this information to a centralized data collection point using low power allowing a long battery life. This results in capabilities in task tracking, attendance management and people-calling. Let’s explore how this technology and the Mutelcor NFC RFID – LoRa Button function. LoRa Technology LoRa (Long-Range) is a wireless communication technology operating on unlicensed sub-gigahertz radio frequencies. It is designed for long-range transmissions with minimal power consumption, making it ideal for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. This technology facilitates extended coverage and efficient data transmission in various environments. Mutelcor NFC RFID – LoRa Button The Mutelcor NFC RFID – LoRaButton utilizes NFC and RFID technology to enhance operational efficiency. It combines the possibility of sending a LoRa message on button press with an optional activation of the built-in NFC RFID reader which can provide additional information about who pressed the button. The device can be configured in a flexible way allowing many different use cases by switching on or off the NFC RFID reader on a per button basis. For instance, in a hospital, the device has 2 buttons, one of which can be defined as a “patient button”. This can be pressed by anyone, for example to call a nurse. The second button can only be pressed by a nurse, who must authenticate herself with her NFC RFID tag, which could be his already existing badge.
