What is RFID?

RFID stands for "Radio-Frequency Identification," referring to wireless radio frequency identification technology used to uniquely identify and manage objects through wireless communication of data.
RFID systems typically consist of tags, readers (or interrogators), and a database. The key component of RFID systems, the tag, is composed of a small chip and an antenna. This chip is attached or embedded in objects, and the antenna is responsible for the transmission and reception of wireless signals. The reader communicates with the tag through the antenna, reads or writes data, and connects this information to the database for real-time tracking or management.

RFID technology is widely utilized in various industries. Below are some key use cases of RFID.

RFID quickly identifies and collects data from objects wirelessly, operating at a faster speed compared to manual processes. Additionally, RFID enables real-time tracking of the location and status of objects, allowing for efficient performance in logistics, production, and inventory management.

RFID enables faster and more accurate data collection compared to barcode scanning, reducing data input errors. RFID can identify objects automatically even in situations without visual visibility.

Utilizing RFID allows transparent tracking of object movement throughout the entire supply chain, enhancing visibility. Using RFID in production lines or warehouses enables real-time monitoring of work status.

RFID detects unauthorized movement of objects and can be applied to secure areas to prevent unauthorized access. RFID can grant individual permissions to tags, allowing only specific users or groups to access.
