Radio Frequency Identification

Symbol Technologies Inc.e RFID products, for both data capture and inventory tracking, have been incorporated with bar code scanning into a single-system solution. According to the supplier, this technology offers performance advantages such as superior read-range and turnkey capability. The strength of the technology centers on a microprocessor chip embedded within a tag. The RFID tag's advantages include data gathering without the need for line-of-sight reading of the tag, allowing for rapid conveyor speeds and the reading of multiple items in a container needed in parcel tracking and warehouse inventory functions. The RFID tag combines item identification information with enhanced loss-prevention capability, providing retailers with the capability to handle applications beyond the reach of bar code-based solutions.
