SM3000 OEM module
3/27 Ambient Systems B.V.
SM3000 SmartPoint OEM module
SmartPoints are part of Ambient’s Series 3000,
which comprises a set of easy to install and use,
highly scalable Third Generation Active RFID
network products. Such networks consists of three
types of devices, namely GateWays, MicroRouters
and SmartPoints. Each network contains at least
one GateWay and – depending on the type of
GateWay – can comprise up to 127 MicroRouters.
SmartPoints then use this backbone infrastructure
to transmit their data and alerts.
The SM3000 is the OEM module version of the
SP3000 SmartPoint. The SP3000 SmartPoint is a
small, battery operated wireless device that is
uniquely characterized by its intelligence. Using its
on-board transceiver it can transmit as well as
receive messages. The SP3000 and SM3000 OEM
module have a highly accurate on-board
temperature sensor and are able to provide
periodic measurements as well as alert situations
when temperature thresholds are breached. They
also contain a built-in 3D Real-Time Location
System (RTLS) localization engine, enabling the
SmartPoint to calculate its own position relieving
the necessity of expensive back office localization
software. The SM3000 OEM module contains as
well a LED for visual feed-back, 1 MB of memory,
for storing product information (e.g. EPC, shipping
bill, product description) and historical sensor and
location data.
3000 Series Networks can grow up to thousands of
SmartPoints allowing for very large and versatile
applications. Their transceiver enables on-demand
behaviour but also allows you to configure the
SmartPoint remotely. So if your application
requirements change, the behaviour of the
SmartPoint can change with it. The SP3000 and
SM3000 SmartPoints are ideally suited for
management by exception as you can configure
your SmartPoint to only sent alerts when a certain
situation arises; this is what we refer to as
Dynamic Event Reporting.
Every SmartPoint is accessible using Ambient's
Device Driver Interface (DDI). DDI provides a
uniform means to address all devices in your
network – GateWays,
MicroRouters and SmartPoints – and their
resources, which are made available by drivers.
