On second thought, a 'library' type security system might be just what you need. Each box gets its own unique strip -- no active parts, no batteries, just a computer to keep track of the box and its strip signature. Ping the whole pallet and listen for the unique signature of the wanted box. Build some df into the listener and you could ping a whole quadrant or shelf area of the warehouse. So over all you need the strips, a database manager for the signatures, and a smart listener that will say yes/no for one particular signature. dag
