Alien Technology introduced ALR-H450, the second UHF passive RFID handheld in the Alien portfolio. This new Android 4.4 (KitKat) device complements the existing Windows Mobile device from Alien, enabling Alien to offer a broad portfolio of products to retail, manufacturing and asset management customers.

The robust (IP64), compact device (7.3” x 3.4” x 4.1”) is differentiated by the inclusion of a full QWERTY keyboard in addition to dual high power lithium polymer batteries (8,400mAh) that provide all day usage with typical handheld duty cycles.

The high performance 4dBic antenna is custom designed to deliver significant boost in read distance, while the quad-core 1.3GHz CPUs enable rapid read rates that benefit customers in the highest levels of read quality in the industry.

“This new device extends our Connected Handheld products to include the open-sourced Android operating system to ease modern application development and interfacing,” said Steve Wang, Alien CTO.

The ALR-H450 is available at a list price of $1,599 for immediate delivery in the US, with other regions to follow shortly.
