RFID is Radio Frequency Identification, a technology that has been around for some time. The most common RFID application that people see in use today is toll tags inside their automobile. As they drive past the toll booth, the reader senses the tag data and charges their account the toll amount. The reader emits a signal at a certain frequency, which energizes the tag to transmit its data back to the reader. The RFID reader does not require line of sight like barcode scanning does, and can read through windows and boxes and totes, etc.
The most popular RFID standard going forward is EPC Global Generation 2. This is the standard that Walmart, Kmart, and the DOD have selected for RFID tagging mandates. These tags come in several flavors, including tags that can be printed in traditional barcode label printers as well as tags that are pre encoded with license plate data. For more information on the EPC standard, please refer to http://www.epcglobalinc.org/.
Typical applications will include compliance labeling, tote tracking, case and pallet tracking, and any other application where automatic identification is needed but it may be hard to provide a barcode that is easy to scan.
