RFIDtracken
RFIDtracken refers to the use of radio-frequency identification to track the location and movement of objects, assets, or people in real time within facilities or across supply chains. The system relies on tags that store identifiers, readers that detect tags, and software that links reads to asset data for live visibility.
Key components include passive or active RFID tags, fixed or handheld readers, antennas, gateways, and middleware.
Common applications cover warehousing and logistics for inventory accuracy, asset tracking in manufacturing and hospitals, retail
Standards such as ISO/IEC 18000 and EPCglobal Gen2 (ISO 18000-6C) govern many deployments; HF and MF systems
Limitations include read range variability due to tag orientation or interference from metal or liquids, infrastructure
