    2. 2/40 Contents

    3. 3/40 Introduction In the present, many service industries including logistics, manufacturing companies and healthcare need automatic identification procedures (Auto ID) in transferring information. The barcode scanner was an alternative in some considerable time ago however due to some limitations, RFID becomes to be an optimal solution today.

    4. 4/40 What is RFID? Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an automatic identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or transponders.

    5. 5/40 Type of RFID tag

    6. 6/40 RFID VS Barcode Human intervention is required to scan a barcode, whereas in most applications an RFID tag can be detected "hands off." Barcodes must be visible on the outside of product packaging. RFID tags can be placed inside the packaging or even in the product itself. You must have "line of sight" to read a barcode. RFID tagged items can be read even if they are behind other items.

    7. 7/40 The readability of barcodes can be impaired by dirt, moisture, abrasion, or packaging contours.  RFID tags are not affected by those conditions. RFID tags have a longer read range than barcodes. RFID tags have read/write memory capability; barcodes do not. More data can be stored in an RFID tag than can be stored on a barcode RFID VS Barcode
