WHAT IS RFID
In its simplest form, RFID - or Radio Frequency Identification - is a revolutionary way of storing information on a small tag that communicates via radio frequency with a remote electronic reader.
Tags can be extremely small in size - as small as a grain of sand - and can automatically relay programmable information to a reader without the need to pass each one past a laser scanner (as is the case with conventional barcodes). This means hundreds of tags can be read in seconds.
RFID technology does not require contact or line-of-sight for communication - data can be read through the human body, clothing and non-metallic materials. RFID technology is developing fast and tags are getting ever smaller and cheaper.
The potential for RFID is enormous. The number and variety of applications for this technology have increased dramatically in recent years, from traditional supply-chain industries to personal safety, sports, transport and logistics. RFID can even make individual banknotes identifiable.
With the right guidance, RFID technology can help businesses achieve a number of important benefits. These include, among others, a reduction in supply-chain and logistics costs, reduced inventory, a reduction in counterfeiting, enhanced customer support and document management.
