Overview

|
 Radio
frequency identification (RFID) is the concept of identifying
a unique object or person using a radio frequency transmission.
It is a technology that connects objects to Internet, so they
can be tracked, and companies can share data about them.
RFID is more than just an ID code, it can be used as a data
carrier, with information being written to and updated on the
tag. RFID has been applied in dozens of industries, for example,
in vehicle and personnel access control, anti-theft systems,
asset tracking and supply chain automation. |
