DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 10, 1999--AXCESS Inc. (Nasdaq:AXSI) announced today that it will demonstrate its active RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) A data collection technology that uses electronic tags for storing data. The tag, also known as an "electronic label," "transponder" or "code plate," is made up of an RFID chip attached to an antenna.  technology in Booth No. 3044 at the International Security Conference and Exposition (ISC (1) (Internet Systems Consortium, Redwood City, CA www.isc.org) An organization founded by Paul Vixie, Carl Malamud and Rick Adams in 1994 and later sponsored by UUNET and other Internet companies.  Expo) held at the Sands Expo The Sands Expo and Convention Center, at 1.2 million square feet (110,000 m²), is the second largest convention center in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. It opened in 1990 across the street from the original Sands Hotel.  and Conference Center in Las Vegas Las Vegas (läs vā`gəs), city (1990 pop. 258,295), seat of Clark co., S Nev.; inc. 1911. It is the largest city in Nevada and the center of one of the fastest-growing urban areas in the United States. .

Over the next three days AXCESS will highlight its RFID capabilities for vehicle access control and tracking, personnel access control, asset and personnel tracking as well as fleet management.

AXCESS Inc. products, based on advanced NeuroTag(R) technology, offer many unique features including hands-free activation, long range read, flexible coverage zones and multiple tag read. Demonstrations at the ISC trade show include Functional Linkage linkage

In mechanical engineering, a system of solid, usually metallic, links (bars) connected to two or more other links by pin joints (hinges), sliding joints, or ball-and-socket joints to form a closed chain or a series of closed chains.
(tm) which links a tagged person to tagged assets as well as vehicle and personnel access control and monitoring.

"Access control has historically been 'who gets in,' but AXCESS products can also identify 'who comes and goes, when and with what asset.' Our products are designed to enhance and extend existing systems, not make them obsolete. This allows us to protect the end-user's current investment in technology, while offering added value Added value in financial analysis of shares is to be distinguished from value added. Used as a measure of shareholder value, calculated using the formula:

Added Value = Sales - Purchases - Labour Costs - Capital Costs

The AXCESS RFID System is a high performance, active tag system A tag system is a deterministic computational model published by Emil Leon Post in 1943 as a simple form of string rewriting system. A tag system may also be viewed as an abstract machine, called a Post tag machine  comprised of radio frequency tags and readers. The tags communicate non-line-of-sight with the reader through an antenna located in the ground, next to the doorway or inconspicuously in·con·spic·u·ous

 installed in a ceiling or wall. The type and tuning of the reader's antenna determines the size and location of that reader's coverage zone. As tags enter the coverage zone the reader communicates the tag's unique ID to the host computer (or controller) via standard interfaces, e.g., 26-bit Wiegand, RS-232, Motorola LonWorks(tm). Several host software packages, including AXCESS' Secure Monitor(tm) provide the intelligence to report on the activities. "In addition to the obvious efficiencies of vehicle gate access this technology affords...when combined with personnel access control and asset tracking the value proposition is an easy sell to companies, which are unserved by any electronic control products," stated Harry Budow. He continued, "ISC is a premier show in the security industry and we're thrilled to be able to present our AXCESS RFID products to many for the first time."

AXCESS Inc., founded in 1982 as Lasertechnics, Inc., consists of two operating subsidiaries An operating subsidiary is a business term frequently used within the United States railroad industry.
