18.12.2006Bermuda to Put RFID in All Vehicles on Island
This month, Bermuda's
Transport Control Department,
a division of the tiny string
of island's Ministry of
Tourism, plans an island-wide
deployment of electronic
vehicle registration made up
of RFID tags, antennas,
readers and a database system.
Over the next five years, the
program is expected to
generate over $11 million
in lost fees from unlicensed
and uninsured vehicles.
A unique
identification number will be
established for each vehicle
registered on the island; each
number is then linked to a
record in a centralized
vehicle database. As car
owners have their vehicles
inspected or registered they
will receive a
tamper-resistant windshield
sticker embedded with an RFID
tag which, when read by a
specially equipped RFID
reader, will send off
information in encrypted code
to TCD's database where it is
linked to a record in the
vehicle database.
The vehicle database itself
identifies vehicles, and the
EVR system retains only photo
images of non-compliant or
criminal vehicles. A
back-office violation
processing system will
automatically generate
citations, while the EVR
system itself will validate
commercial vehicle
registration and issue
violations. Bermuda will also
receive a network of fixed
reader points that will verify
vehicle registration and
compliance. In sting-like
operations transportable,
tripod-mounted readers and
handheld readers will be used
for screening vehicles at
random locations. In addition
to tracking down errant
registration and vehicle
inspections, the system will
automate emissions and
insurance compliance as well.
3M, which develops vehicle
registration systems, is
designing and implementing
Bermuda's RFID-based system.
