What is RFID
RFID stands for Radio-Frequency Identification where they refer to small electronic devices that consist of a small chip and an antenna. The chip typically is capable of carrying 2,000 bytes of data or less. The purpose of an RFID system is to enable data to be transmitted by a portable device, called a tag, which is read by an RFID reader and processed according to the needs of a particular application. The data transmitted by the tag may provide identification or location information, or specifics about the product tagged, such as price, color, date of purchase, and so on. RFID technology has been used by thousands of companies for a decade or more now. RFID quickly gained attention because of its ability to track moving objects.
Current and Potential Uses of RFID are described as below.
Asset Tracking: It 's no surprise that asset tracking is one of the most common uses of RFID. Companies can put RFID tags on assets that are lost or stolen often, that are underutilized or
