Introduction in Radio Frequency Identification Technology

SUMMARY

The learning material begins with asset tracking using RFID. Asset tracking is an increasingly important key technology for industrial manufacturing companies. Digital asset tracking brings greater transparency to the production process, allowing you to see the progress and status of your production line at any time. Afterwards, we explain RFID – Radio Frequency Identification – technology.

In this learning lessons, we will introduce the RFID for track and trace applications.

1. We will start with an introduction to asset tracking.
2. We will then look at the basic building blocks of RFID applications. These include RFID tags, RFID readers and an application.
3. Finally, we will look at Near Field Communication which is a special form of RFID technology.
