Parents worried about the safety of their chil-dren now have help in the form
of RFID tags. Electronic security comp-any Zicom Security Sys-tems Ltd is
planning to introduce RFID techno-logy in some schools in Mumbai in the next
three months. According to Manohar Bidaye, Chair-man, Zicom this techno-logy
would help parents keep track of their child-ren. Pilot tests are curr-ently
being conducted in some schools in Mumbai. Bidaye said this would be
commercially deployed in three months.
The RFID tags would be incorporated on the identity cards of each student.
Parents who wish to subscribe to the service could track the whereabouts of
their children with the help of readers that would mess-age the mobile depend-ing
on the trigger set. These readers would be placed in convenient locations.
Bidaye believed that this service would find plenty of takers due to rising
security con-cerns in the society.
