RFID is one method of automatic identification and data capture.
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. An RFID tag consists of a tiny radio transponder; a radio receiver and transmitter. When triggered by an electromagnetic interrogation pulse from a nearby RFID reader device, the tag transmits digital data, usually an identifying inventory number, back to the reader. This number can be used to inventory goods.
Implementing RFID technology gives you the edge you need to stay competitive in today’s retail environment. It can provide a return on investment through increased inventory accuracy and improved insight into unique business needs.
RFID technology can track inventory in substantially less time and is designed to meet the needs of today’s shoppers, who expect a seamless experience whether buying from their smartphones, laptops or in store.
