E-MAIL: Raymond Witmer, raymond.witmer@uspto.gov. The U. S. Patent & Trademark Office is seeking product information and implementation of a Radio Frequency Tag (RFTAG) system to assist in locating lost or misplaced document files. At a minimum, the system must handle approximately 1 million documents initially, and 500,000 additional documents annually. The system must be capable of mapping each RFTAG with a unique specified filename for each document, which can be input automatically into an Oracle Database. The RFTAG initialization equipment must allow the input of a barcode that is related to the RFTAG filename. The system must include a remote scanner for locating RF tagged documents. The remote scanner must be programmable to receive various types of data. There must be a clear and simple process for inputting or outputting data between the scanner and a PC based system. The scanning hardware must be capable of handling a minimum of 500 document references in memory at any time. The system, while working remotely, must be capable of detecting whether any of the document references currently being held in memory are within a 2-4 foot radius and notify the user with the filename of the located file. Y2K compliance is required in all aspects of the system. This request is for information only. No solicitation exists at this time. All information is to be furnished at no cost or obligation to the government.
