RF Tech Limited has been
awarded "Hong Kong RFID Awards 2012" for Book Enrolment Station.
The system combines software and hardware. By making use of a built-in digital camera, barcode
scanner, weight measuring device and low power solid-state electronic illumination, the system enables
the librarian to automatically retrieve the particulars of a book from an international standard book number
(ISBN) database by reading its barcode, take an image of the front cover and spine of the book, and read
and write information to a RFID tag – all in one step.
The system has been implemented for The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and Institute for
Tourism Studies (IFT) in Macau. Extensive literature survey and patent search have been conducted to
confirm that no product or mechanism or similar to Book Enrolment Station exists in the market or is being
developed. The automatic book enrolment system can greatly increase library efficiency, freeing up a
librarian’s time to perform other high value roles and duties for better patron oriented services.
