The powers that be at Boston's Logan International Airport have contracted Boston Engineering to implement an RFID 
project that will track customers and their baggage from arrival to final destination.

Boston Engineering will utilize Vienna, Va.-based Inkode's CRIS (Chipless Remote Identification System) technology as 
the basis for the pilot program.

Dubbed SEATS, or Secure Environment for Airport Terminal Systems, the project is actually a collaboration between the 
two companies that combines Inkode's passive, disposable wireless tracking device with a baggage tracking system 
developed by Boston Engineering.
