RFID

Introduction RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology is a rapidly expanding technology being utilized more and more in our daily life. This paper will explain the history, uses, benefits, obstacles and innovations of RFID. I will examine why it is being employed by so many industries and what can limit its expansion. RFID Background RFID types consist of either passive systems, which do not have an internal power source, or active systems, which have a power supply and can…

which makes radio frequency identification tags and readers. This article describes the use of RFIDs and where they are placed, what their intended purpose is, and why it has stirred commotion to people. Dante Sorella, a CEO of a technology firm informs the readers of some presentations that were given as well. One quick example of this that places such as the US military which have been experimenting with RFIDs on tires for vehicles they use. Further into the article, Marketing director at…

identification chips called RFID. This technology is essentially the remote recognition of objects. With RFID, there has been concern that our privacy could potentially be breached by stores and companies by means of item-level tagging. Essentially, item-level tagging is a better way to keep inventory. If a company were to integrate the RFID into a product through nanotechnology, it would be easy to keep stock and be able see if an item was stolen. However, when an item is purchased, the RFID…

The innovation of the RFID chip or the Radio Frequency Identification has been a critical piece of technology that has been around since the 1950’s.. There are several methods of identification, but the most common is to store a serial number that identifies a person or object, and perhaps other information, on a microchip known as identity chip. A microchip implant could be used as a virtual barricade, to limit movement, and even to act as a tag for prisoners. In the realm of medicine, it could…

Frequency Identification (RFID), NavaStickers increases efficiency in daily life, aiding in the reduction of squandered time by allowing the average person to find misplaced objects immediately at a low price. Our product will expound on the issues regarding the importance of keeping inventory, locating items efficiently, and mitigating the inconveniences of current day products. Currently, there are few ways to keep inventory of products…

Supply Chain One of the key factors that helps JCPenney maintain its position today is its global supply chain. JCP prides itself on being one of the largest purchasers of clothing, shoes, accessories and more in the United States, and this is achieved by maintaining a diverse supplier base. The company manages this by operating through its home office in Plano, Texas, its design studio in New York City, 11 quality assurance offices throughout the globe, and 9 international buying offices.…

(IEEE, 2007). Transportation information systems can face cyber-attacks on highway traffic controls systems, pipeline control systems, train control, and power/telecommunications. What is RFID? “RFID systems are relatively simple, consisting of readers and tags. Readers radiate…

capable of sending but only one device can send at a time, this is more commonly referred to as half-duplex mode. RFID is a technology that can be used to read and write contactlessly from a reader to a RFID tag. NFC specification are compatible with RFID, as these specifications fall under the same umbrella, therefore NFC readers can communicate with RFID tags. Newer bank cards contain a RFID tag in order to perform contactless transactions. The potential for privacy issues could also be a…

If you ever had any free time on your hand, I would recommend that you go and watch Resident Evil: Extinction. It’s a very entertaining action packed movie, but it also gives a rough draft about what are radio-frequency identification chips (RFID Chips). Radio frequency identification chips uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects that contain personal information. In the movie, the used a devices very similar to radio-frequency chips to track the…

(Maselli 1). Pople made the decision for NYK Logistics to use an active-tag RFID system rather than a bar code system that the company was originally considering. Pople believed that a bar code system would only help identify the containers and would not help locate them, which was the primary issue (Maselli 1). Instead, Pople chose an active tag RFID system (Maselli, 2). As explained in an online article by Claire Swedberg from RFID Journal, radio frequency identifications use microchips, also…
