Smart Band PRECISION DYNAMICS CORP.

Precision Dynamics Corp. provides a new twist on a method for identification or payment. The system, called the Smart Band, combines Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology with a durable, non-transferable, tamper-resistant wristband. Smart Bands can be used for both tracking and point-of-sale purchases.

Using the Smart Band system, one can record and transfer serial numbers, personal records and account information from a wristband to a computer system, or vice versa.

The Smart Band uses a microchip and antenna sealed inside a wristband, allowing information to be written to and received from the Smart Band via RFID scanners. When the wristband passes within the range of the scanner, information is transmitted. The Smart Band system is compatible with management information systems and wireless local area networks (LANS).

Smart Bands use a frequency of 13.56 megahertz, which allows readings and transmissions through clothing, the body and glass windows and provides a long shelf life - the Smart Band does not require a battery.

Magic Waters amusement park in Rockford, Ill., is using the Smart Band system for cashless and cardless point-of-sale purchases. The park calls the wristband system Splash Cash.

Here's how it is used: A customer purchases an account at the time of admission for a certain dollar amount and then "wears" the money on a wrist in the form of a Smart Band.

When it's time to buy food, drinks or souvenirs, the customer places his or her wristband near an RFID scanner, and the computer calculates the cost, reads how much is available in the account on the wristband, subtracts the dollar amount and then sends the new total back to the computer chip inside the wristband.

The wristband works like an electronic wallet. The main benefit for users of the Smart Band system at the point-of-sale is convenient spending; there is no need to carry cash. Some of the benefits for companies implementing the technology include printing promotional messages on the wristband and obtaining valued demographic information from their customers.

Smart Bands also are targeted to the health care, security and law enforcement industries.
