Zebra Launches Zatar 'Internet of Things' Service for RFID Readers, Networked Devices

Several companies are currently testing a new application from Zebra Technologies, known as Zatar. The new app, according to Zebra, enables the firms to manage printers, RFID readers, personal digital assistants (PDAs) and other networked electronic devices remotely. Although businesses can already purchase software to receive and display data from wireless devices—such as RFID readers or printers, forklifts or thermostats—such software can be costly and is typically installed at a single site rather than shared across multiple locations that may be in separate countries or on different continents.
