Software Overview

SkyeTek’s software for embedded readers transforms the RFID reader from an inaccessible “black box” to an easily accessible, application friendly RFID reader module.  This software is designed for OEMs who seek to embed RFID readers into their products and leverage extensive business rules.

Software Offering

SkyeTek offers three separate software solutions to address the core needs of OEMs and designers aiming to integrate RFID:

Application	Major Focus	Synopsis
SkyeWare 4	Evaluation	Robust testing and evaluation environment designed to bring all skill levels up to speed on embedded RFID modules.  Also used for scripting and testing code.
SkyeAPI	Programming	Application Programming Interface used by developers to build applications that talk directly to the reader.  Built in the C language, these libraries are flexible and easy to integrate into virtually any program.
SkyeSecurity	Enterprise Security	Robust security layer with support for standards-based and proprietary security algorithms to keep applications years ahead of counterfeiters and hackers.

SkyeTek Software Benefits

SkyeTek's software provides customers unparalleled benefits, including:

• Provides maximum investment protection as standards and specifications change over time.
• Easily integrates with applications via SkyeAPI, a single library that abstracts, simplifies, and automates obscure tag- / protocol-specific functions from the programmer.
• Provides best-in-class security with privacy protection and anti-counterfeiting / anti-tampering that can be used with any generic tag once they become available with extended memory.
• Possesses Tagnostic® support for more HF and UHF protocols and tags than any other comparable reader allowing customers to fully optimize their application.
• Possesses TagIQ™ that recognizes the unique characteristics of each tag allowing the optimization of read / write performance for each individual tag type.
• Achieves performance optimization through industry leading power control, noise reduction technology, anti-collision, and power management.
