    Powercast Wins 2021 BIG Innovation Award

    Attains accolade for its wirelessly-powered RFID Temperature Scanning System.

    Powercast Wins 2021 BIG Innovation Award
    Printed Electronics Now staff01.12.21

    Powercast announced it has been named a winner in the 2021 BIG Innovation Awards presented by the Business Intelligence Group for its newly launched wirelessly-powered RFID Temperature Scanning System, which enables businesses to easily and safely monitor employees’ temperatures in support of COVID-19 monitoring protocols. 

     

    The Temperature Scanning System is comprised of a wirelessly-powered temperature-scanning fob for each employee, an RFID reader, and a TV monitor. 

     

    Employees receive a fob small enough to fit onto their keychain that is personalized to them. 

     

    The fob quickly charges when held near an RFID reader at the entrance to the business using Powercast’s patented power harvesting technology. 

     

    Employees scan their forehead using the fob to read their temperature, and are permitted to enter or are denied entry based on the reading, which automatically appears on the monitor. 

     

    The company showcased the RFID Temperature Scanning System at CES Virtual 2021.

     

    “We are honored to receive this prestigious award, which recognizes our efforts to help bring back a sense of normalcy in these challenging times for businesses,” said Charles Greene, Ph.D., chief operating officer and chief technology officer of Powercast. “Our system showcases the many benefits and future opportunities of wireless power as it helps businesses reopen and get back to normal.” 

     

    “More than ever, our global society relies on innovation to help progress humanity and make our lives more productive, healthy and comfortable,” added Maria Jimenez, chief operating officer of the Business Intelligence Group.
