Automatic identification (Auto-ID) technologies such as radio frequency identification (RFID) and barcoding present business with exciting opportunities to create systems which link automatically to the world around them.
Auto-ID offers ways to electronically identify people, places and things. Computer systems can know the whereabouts of things in the real world, collecting information about where they are, how they are used and whether they need attention. Auto-ID technologies reduce the costs of information collection and improve its accuracy. They can help to automate processes that today depend on pencil and paper or manual data entry.
Barcoding is simple, low cost, and widely used in retail and can be used for many other applications. New barcode standards provide for greater information storage on barcode labels.
RFID is easy to apply and increasingly used in preference to barcoding, with the benefits of automatic reading, and collecting information at a distance, without being able to see the RFID tags or labels. RFID readers can operate remotely.
CoreRFID specialises in providing the technologies that make RFID and bar-co
ding systems a practical proposition.
RFID technologies make exciting new ways of creating systems possible. They can change working practices, improve regulatory compliance and reduce the asset costs of businesses. Learn more about the technologies that underpin RFID in this Introduction.
RFID solutions are often straightforward to implement but it is a technology that needs specialist skills to ensure success. Selecting the right components and establishing a best-in-class approach needs knowledge and experience. CoreRFID has been working in this field for 15 years.You can learn more about our capabilities and how they help in implementing RFID solutions here.
