RFID vs. IOT_ What Are The Differences_

RFID provides dependable connectivity between physical products and RFID readers that are connected to the internet. Most of these implementations take advantage of IoT capabilities for sharing data between physical devices and cloud databases to support various authentication, transaction, analytics, and control use cases. Users can sometimes combine these with other technologies such as barcode tags and readers, which can be more cost-effective in some scenarios.

  1. RFID vs. IOT: What Are The Differences? RFID vs IOT has been a common issue of debate, yet both technologies have their own loyal fanbase. They are often used synonymously by many, but it is to be understood as a fact that both are quite different and unique in their own ways. The approaches, methods and applications differ. Both are undoubtedly counted amongst the most efficient automatic tracking technologies. Nevertheless, their functions are specific to varying stages of the supply chain. In this aspect, users are commonly found to favour a combination of both. RFID IT asset tracking management has been found to benefit quite a few sectors, with IoT having certain further additions.

  2. To begin with, let us see what these two technologies basically are - 1. What it is RFID technology is a technology that is used to read data from RFID tags (active or passive) onto the items. On the other hand, IoT commonly refers to a technology which is much broader in its approach facilitating communication and control of smart devices. 2. How is it basically used RFID tags help eliminate the need for batteries which is highly preferred for their associated reduction in costs. IoT is primarily used for connecting physical things to various networks and information services. 3. Uses RFID tags are great for speedily tracking products in large shipments, in addition to scanning products at the point of sale. IoT is mostly used by industrial users for monitoring and controlling manufacturing and industrial equipment.

  3. Differences between RFID and IoT - RFID vs IoT Now, let’s look at a few other differences between RFID asset management and IoT: ● RFID specifically works on radio technology, while IoT is more adaptable and compatible with any network. ● RFID (both active and passive tags) have a limited distance reach of up to a few inches or feet, while IoT is great for short to long range networks. ● RFID is valid for tags and authentication tokens, while IoT supports various kinds of data communications. ● RFID technology is great at detecting the proximity of objects, while IoT is more suitable for real-time sensor data. ● RFID tags are highly favoured for being low cost and simple to use devices, while IoT devices are considered more expensive and complex to use. Despite the many differences, most users across the globe prefer using RFID and IoT in interesting combinations to bring the best results. Business operations, asset tracking, inventory management, are just some of the many things to benefit from and transform greatly. The right mix of technologies definitely works in favour of the business. Get in touch with a renowned RFID solution provider of and IoT technologies for the best of your business.
