Ten applications of RFID in life

RFID radio frequency identification technology, also known as radio frequency identification, is a communication technology that can identify specific targets and read and write related data through radio signals without the need to establish mechanical or optical contact between the identification system and the specific target.

In the era of the Internet of Everything, RFID technology is not far from us in reality, and it also brings new challenges and opportunities to various industries. RFID technology enables every item to have its own ID card ID, which is widely promoted Used in item identification and tracking scenarios. With the development of technology, in fact, RFID has penetrated into all aspects of our lives. In all walks of life, RFID has become a part of life. Let’s take a look at ten common applications of RFID in life.

1. Smart Transportation: Automatic Vehicle Recognition

By using RFID to identify the vehicle, it is possible to know the running status of the vehicle at any time, and realize the automatic tracking management of the vehicle. Vehicle automatic counting management system, unmanned vehicle route warning system, molten iron tank number automatic identification system, long-distance vehicle automatic identification system, roadway vehicle priority passing system, etc.

2. Intelligent manufacturing: production automation and process control

RFID technology has many applications in production process control because of its strong ability to resist harsh environments and non-contact identification. Through the use of RFID technology in the automated assembly line of large factories, material tracking and automatic control and monitoring of production processes are realized, production efficiency is improved, production methods are improved, and costs are reduced. Typical applications of Detective IoT in the field of intelligent manufacturing include: RFID production reporting system, RFID production tracking and tracing system, AGV unmanned handling site identification system, inspection robot path identification system, concrete prefabricated component quality traceability system, etc.

3. Smart animal husbandry: animal identification management

RFID technology can be used to identify, track and manage animals, identify livestock, monitor animal health and other important information, and provide a reliable technical means for the modern management of pastures. In large farms, RFID technology can be used to establish feeding files, vaccination files, etc., to achieve the purpose of efficient and automated management of livestock, and to provide guarantee for food safety. The typical applications of Detective IoT in the field of animal identification include: automatic counting system for cattle and sheep entry and exit, information management system for electronic identification of dogs, pig breeding traceability system, animal husbandry insurance subject identification system, animal identification and traceability system, experiment Animal identification system, automatic precision feeding system for sows, etc.

4. Smart Healthcare

Use RFID technology to realize the interaction between patients and medical staff, medical institutions, and medical equipment, gradually achieve informationization, and make medical services move towards real intelligence. system, endoscope cleaning and disinfection traceability system, etc.

5. Asset management: material inventory and warehouse management

Using RFID technology, tag management of fixed assets is carried out. By adding RFID electronic tags and installing RFID identification equipment at entrances and exits, it can realize comprehensive visualization of assets and real-time update of information, and monitor the use and flow of assets. The use of RFID technology for intelligent warehouse cargo management can effectively solve the management of information related to the flow of goods in the warehouse, monitor the cargo information, understand the inventory situation in real time, automatically identify and count the goods, and determine the location of the goods. Typical applications of Detective IoT in the field of asset management include: RFID warehouse management system, RFID fixed asset management system, transparent cleaning intelligent supervision system, garbage collection and transportation intelligent supervision system, electronic label light-up picking system, RFID book management system, RFID patrol line management system, RFID file management system, etc.

6. Personnel management

The use of RFID technology can effectively identify personnel, conduct security management, simplify entry and exit procedures, improve work efficiency, and effectively protect security. The system will automatically identify the identity of people when they enter and exit, and there will be an alarm when they break in illegally. The typical applications of Detective IoT in the field of personnel management include: middle and long-distance running timing lap system, personnel positioning and trajectory management, long-distance personnel automatic identification system, forklift collision avoidance warning system, etc.

7. Logistics and distribution: automatic sorting of mail and parcels

RFID technology has been successfully applied to the automatic sorting system of postal parcels in the postal field. The system has the characteristics of non-contact and non-line-of-sight data transmission, so the directional problem of parcels can be ignored in the delivery of parcels. In addition, when multiple targets enter the identification area at the same time, they can be identified at the same time, which greatly improves the sorting ability and processing speed of the goods. Since the electronic label can record all the characteristic data of the package, it is more conducive to improving the accuracy of parcel sorting.

8. Military management

RFID is an automatic identification system. It automatically identifies targets and collects data through non-contact radio frequency signals. It can identify high-speed moving targets and identify multiple targets at the same time without manual intervention. It is fast and convenient to operate, and can adapt to various harsh environments. Regardless of the procurement, transportation, warehousing, use, and maintenance of military materials, commanders at all levels can grasp their information and status in real time. RFID can collect and exchange data between readers and electronic tags at a very fast speed, with the ability to intelligently read and write and encrypt communication, the world’s unique password, and extremely strong information confidentiality, which requires accurate and fast military management. , safe and controllable to provide a practical technical approach.

9. Retail Management

RFID applications in the retail industry mainly focus on five aspects: supply chain management, inventory management, in-store merchandise management, customer relationship management and security management. Due to the unique identification method and technical characteristics of RFID, it can bring huge benefits to retailers, suppliers and customers. It enables the supply chain system to track the dynamics of goods more easily and automatically in an efficient way, so that items can be Realize true automation management. In addition, RFID also provides the retail industry with advanced and convenient data collection methods, convenient customer transactions, efficient operation methods, and fast and insightful decision-making methods that cannot be replaced by barcode technology.

10. Anti-counterfeiting traceability

The problem of counterfeiting is a headache all over the world. The application of RFID technology in the field of anti-counterfeiting has its own technical advantages. It has the advantages of low cost and difficult to counterfeit. The electronic label itself has a memory, which can store and modify the data related to the product, which is conducive to the identification of authenticity. Using this technology does not need to change the current data management system, the unique product identification number can be completely compatible with the existing database system.
