Case Study: Snapsportz captures nearly every zip line photo with HID Global RFID tags

Snapsportz™ Delivers Great Outdoor Experience with RFID Tags

Snapsportz partnered with HID Global to overcome the challenge of reliably capturing photos of guests on a rugged zip line course at Princeville Ranch Adventures. The harsh Hawaiian environment, combined with the need to sanitize equipment between uses, caused previous RFID tags to fail, resulting in a significant loss of customer images and a poor experience.

HID Global provided its durable SlimFlex RFID tags, which were riveted to helmets and could withstand extreme weather, impacts, and cleaning with bleach. This solution delivered near 100% readability, ensuring virtually every guest could view and purchase photos. For the customer, the Snapsportz system powered by HID Global more than doubled the revenue of the entire zip line operation and generated significant promotional value through social media shares.
