Filed:

Mar 6, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/074740

Inventors:

Curtis B. Hause - Lake Elmo MN, US
Sanjay Gupta - Woodbury MN, US
Stephen J. Rothermel - Roseville MN, US
Jody L. Gregg - Lake Elmo MN, US

Assignee:

Imation Corp. - Oakdale MN

International Classification:

G06Q 30/00

US Classification:

235385, 235384

Abstract:

A mobile reader configured to compile a list of data storage devices for transport includes an interface electrically coupled to circuitry modules including RFID scanning circuitry configured to read a unique storage device identifier from each of the data storage devices, and barcode scanning circuitry configured to read the unique storage device identifier from each of the data storage devices. The barcode scanning circuitry communicates with the RFID scanning circuitry. The interface includes a user operable function that enables selectively reading the unique storage device identifier with one of the RFID scanning circuitry or the barcode scanning circuitry to compile a scan list of in-transit data storage devices.

International Classification:

G06F 7/00

US Classification:

707102, 700225

Abstract:

An electronic data storage device tracing system includes at least one data storage device and a reader system. The data storage device includes a housing having an optical label and a device RFID tag coupled to the housing. In this regard, the optical label is printed with a volser number and the device RFID tag includes a chip that electronically stores the volser number. The reader system is configured to read the volser number from the chip and trace the at least one data storage device entering/exiting the reader system.

International Classification:

A23B 7/04

US Classification:

426231

Abstract:

This disclosure provides a method useful for identifying tubers (e.g., potatoes) suitable for long-term cold storage. Generally, the method includes analyzing a plurality of potatoes for at least one cold storage indicator, and storing at least a portion of the plurality of potatoes for a predetermined time at a predetermined temperature if the cold storage indicator value is a predetermined value.
