ThingMagic® SkyeWare™ 4 API
SkyeWare™ 4 API is Novanta’s quick and powerful, intuitive interface included with ThingMagic® HF modules (not applicable for other frequency modules); a redesigned approach for developers to accelerate their RFID application development by providing a comprehensive PC development environment allowing the immediate testing of code on connected modules.
SkyeWare™ 4 API development environment provides a flexible and robust design, production, and evaluation platform supporting multiple quick launch demonstrations leading to rapid proof-of-concepts.
The API is robust enough to cover optimization of environmental conditions, such as read range and anti-collision, pinpointing the best fitting tags for the target application while offering security for proprietary branded tags and standards-based security for generic tags: designed for OEMs who build for high privacy protection, anti-counterfeiting, and anti-tampering applications like the Defense or Financial Services industry, and who require complete customizable control over how data is shared.
Security measures include: Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Secure Hash Algorithms (SHA), MIFARE, DESFire and CryptoRF.
