Abstract
There are provided a reader antenna configured to carry out radio communication with a RFID circuit element provided at a RFID label and provided with an IC circuit part storing information and a tag antenna capable of transmission/reception of information and a display portion configured to specify a tag ID of at least one RFID circuit element, to get information from the specified RFID circuit element via the reader antenna, and to display at least a part of print image data of the RFID label corresponding to the RFID circuit element, which is a target of the information acquisition before completion of the information acquisition.
Claims14
An apparatus for communicating with a RFID tag comprising:
- a radio communication device configured to carry out radio communication with a RFID circuit provided at a RFID label element, said RFID circuit having an IC circuit part storing information and a tag antenna capable of transmission/reception of information;
- a tag information acquisition portion configured to specify identification information of at least one said RFID circuit element and to attempt to get information from said specified RFID circuit element via said radio communication device;
- and
- an image display device configured to display at least a part of print image data of said RFID label corresponding to said RFID circuit element, which is a target of said information acquisition, before said information acquisition by said tag information acquisition portion is completed by means of specifying said identification information.
An apparatus for producing RFID labels comprising:
- a feeding device configured to feed a tag medium on which a RFID circuit element provided with an IC circuit part storing information and a tag antenna for transmission/reception of information is arranged;
- an apparatus antenna configured to carry out information transmission/reception with said RFID circuit element via radio communication;
- a printing device configured to apply a print on said tag medium or a print-receiving medium to be bonded to said tag medium;
- and
- a first image data output portion configured to output print image data of said RFID label including image data of print by said printing device to said tag medium or said print-receiving medium in association with identification information of said RFID circuit element corresponding to said RFID label.
A label image management system comprising:
- an apparatus for producing RFID labels configured to produce a RFID label with print;
- and
- an apparatus for communicating with a RFID tag;
- said apparatus for producing RFID labels including:
- an apparatus antenna configured to carry out information transmission/reception via radio communication with a RFID circuit element provided at a tag medium, said RFID circuit element having an IC circuit part storing information and a tag antenna for transmission/reception of information;
- and
- a printing device configured to apply a print on said tag medium or a print-receiving medium to be bonded to said tag medium;
- said apparatus for communicating with a RFID tag including:
- a tag information acquisition portion configured to get information via radio communication from said RFID circuit element provided at said RFID label produced by said apparatus for producing RFID labels;
- and
- an image display device configured to display print image data of said RFID label corresponding to said RFID circuit element, which is a target of said information acquisition, before said information acquisition by said tag information acquisition portion is completed.
