Background: Technology Demo
• A major goal of the Green-Food Pathway (GFP) Initiative is to develop an internationally acceptable green commodity flow system.
• This system requires a common Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Platform which can provide stakeholders along supply chain in consultation, training, planning, capacity building, monitoring, detection, testing, auditing, accreditation and certification.
4
Purpose: Technology Demo
• The purposes of this alliance technology demonstration project are: – to identify and study emerging technologies and
devices, such as RFID and wireless sensor network, that can used in the ICT Platform.
– to develop and demonstrate a Web-based Realtime Intelligent RFID and Sensor Data Acquisition, Monitoring and Exchange System can can be incorporated into the future ICT Platform.

RFID and Sensor Devices: RFID Reader
Integrated ZigBee Wireless Sensor Network
– ZigBee (IEEE 802.15.4) provides a standardized base set of solutions for wireless sensor network systems.
– Greater benefits can be achieved by combing RFID and ZigBee network technologies, called RFID Sensor Network.
– Ad-Hoc mess RFID Sensor Network can be self-formed anywhere and anytime.
