Get ready for the Revolution

 

Radio frequency identification (RFID) will have a revolutionary impact on industries and scientific endeavors worldwide. The automated identification of individual objects can potentially yield enormous increases in productivity by providing precise and accurate data.

In the next several years, the vast majority of applications will be in the industrial sector. Examples include tracking freight containers and shipments in the supply chain, parts in manufacturing, and animals in the food chain. Widespread adoption of RFID in the consumer sector will not take place until consumers are satisfied that their privacy has been safeguarded.
