What is RFID (Radio Frequency Identification)?
RFID Purpose:
Transmit information or unique serial number using radio waves transmitted by a reader, whether fixed or handheld.
RFID Objective:
Automate its traceability, eliminating as much as possible manual processes which entail errors and recourse.
RFID types:
Depending on the customer’s need we will have to choose the RFID technology to use and the optimal inlays models:
- UHF: Mainly used in complex logistic applications where long distance readings are required (Up to 10/12 meters).
Basic benefits: Reading without direct visibility (not oriented like barcode readers), massive tag readings (up to 400 readings in a second) and direct access to tag information (recorded on the tag chip).
- HF / NFC: Mainly used in applications where some interaction with the end customer or security / non-forgery is required. Contact reading (very short distance).
Basic benefits: Any mobile phone has an NFC reader, so we can communicate with the final customer easily and directly. NFC protocol for non-counterfeits, inherited from credit cards.
