RFID system monitors temperature of refrigerated trucks

"A UK company has released a wireless system monitoring system allowing managers to keep track of the temperatures of refrigerated truck trailers while they are parked or being chilled for loading. The system would aid plant managers that all food safety requirements are met for products up to the point they leave the premises. It provides another way to automate a key safety check along the supply chain. The OEM Group's Secureseal system uses radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to link computers in a plant's transport office or warehouse with the trailers in the yard."
