The residences not only needed a reliable solution to automatically identify vehicles, but preferably one that required few, or rather no, maintenance.

After a comprehensive evaluation, Nedap’s Transit was the preferred choice to offer the required security and convenience. The developer of the residential project was impressed with the robust quality and performance of the solution. The installation was realised by Shanghai Utis.

The long-range identification reader Transit identifies vehicles up to 7 metres in combination with the Compact Tag. Residents and the personnel all have this tag in their vehicle. As soon as they enter the reading zone of the Transit reader, the vehicle is identified. This convenient solution allows authorised vehicles to enter the residential area, without the need to stop at the gate. As the tag is not attached to the vehicle, drivers can easily take it with them when they leave the vehicle.

Both the Transit reader and the Compact Tag have proven to be very reliable, and even show an excellent performance with high-end vehicles. According to the company, the residents have expressed satisfaction with the Nedap solution and have mentioned they will definitely use it for future projects.

“The Transit reader is of good quality and reliability. The battery lifespan of the Compact Tag is really long and they have shown to outlast other domestic products,” says Jackson Gong, General Manager Shanghai Utis.

“This was a high-end project and therefore, the end user was willing to try out higher quality products to satisfy the property owners,” says Marc Chia, Business Development Manager at Nedap Identification Systems.
