RFID - Having the right product, in the right place, at the right time, will save you money!
What is RFID?
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a proven technology that uses radio waves to identify individual items at specific locations.
A typical RFID solution consists of a data gatherer, RFID reader, and a data carrier (RFID tag) that is attached to an item or location
Unlike ubiquitous UPC bar-code technology, RFID technology does not require contact or line of sight for communication
