Technical innovation lab
The technical innovation lab monitors the development of new technologies for the commercial market and identifies components that might be interesting for the movement research community. We have facilities to put together prototypes and develop applications suitable for the different CAnMove research projects. The main areas of interest are radio tracking, radar technology, GPS, energy harvesting, optical methods and magnetic field measurements.
Technologies that we work with: RFID
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a technology used in numerous applications, tracking everything from pets to 20-foot containers. The RFID tag identifies itself when being close enough to a reader antenna. RFID tags could be made very small (<1mm), but the detection distance is usually only a few centimeters. RFID tags are used on smaller birds and even insects, like bees.- 1 of 5
