Students to feel safe with RFID and GPS-Based solution from AT&T

Filed in archive Companies on December 20, 2007

AT&T is keen on targeting the K - 12 education sector and for this purpose it has come up with an interoperable RFID and GPS based mobile resource management solution. The solution is expected to help in ensuring a better control over vehicles of the institutions, enhance safety of the students, bring down costs and increase staff productivity. This is the first network services company which has come forward to offer an integrated RFID and MRM solution for educational sector.

With this solution not only parents will feel tension free as the safety of their kids will improve but even school administration will be able to cut down on their costs as school buses could be routed in an efficient manner. This solution seems very much similar to the RTLS solution being implemented in hospitals. I feel this system will receive acceptance from all sections of the society since it is aimed at their well being and not regarded as another means of violating the privacy of individuals.
