Radio
frequency identification
RFID
specializes in radio frequency identification, a method of package
monitoring used to keep track of shipped materials and other items.
The process involves equipping an item with some form of identification,
be it a serial bar code or biometric system such as retinal or fingerprint
scanners.
While some of these methods require human interaction, such as scanning
a bar code, others can be completely automatic, cutting down on
personnel required to complete the task. Typically an item is equipped
with a microchip that has a radio antenna attached. Observing computers
then monitor the packages via the radio signal the packages emit.
The microchip stores up to two kilobytes of data and allows for
companies and shippers to include product information, company names,
destination information, or other like data.
