The application of RFID technology in life
In recent years, RFID technology has developed rapidly, and has been gradually applied to various fields, and has made great achievements in many fields.
RFID makes the warehouse environment no longer dead
For warehousing, which is closely related to manufacturing, retail and logistics, the automation of RFID technology and products for inventory tracking, inventory and asset management will revolutionize the industry and realize digital management of traditional factories and warehouses. and intelligent upgrades.
In the current warehousing scenario, QR codes and barcodes are mostly on the packages of express delivery or goods. The premise of positioning and trajectory planning of goods is the accurate identification of these codes. At present, the most widely used identification method in the industry is still active equipment or vision system, but there are problems of high cost and regular maintenance. Especially for the vision system, the biggest drawback is that if there is occlusion or multiple items are stacked, or the label is contaminated or damaged, the recognition of the camera will be greatly limited, such as the current fire in the manufacturing industry. The "black light factory", in the absence of light or dim conditions, the stability of the camera will be greatly challenged.
In contrast, if passive RFID tags are used, this situation can be avoided to the greatest extent. For RFID tags, it not only has a certain degree of penetration, but also has waterproof, anti-magnetic, high temperature resistance, long service life, long reading distance, tag data can be encrypted, large storage data capacity, storage The advantages of free information, etc., will not be limited by light. At the same time, the biggest advantage of passive RFID tags is that they are very cheap and maintenance-free, and in this case, they can still achieve relatively high-precision positioning. Therefore, passive RFID tags can be widely used not only in the warehouse environment, but also in other scenarios in the future.
RFID Makes Fast Food Faster
RFID radio frequency identification technology enables the fast food industry to improve back-end and front-end operations by increasing efficiency practices at all supply chain stages, from distribution centers to food supply. On the back end, RFID enables fast food restaurant businesses to accurately track all items within minutes. From here, regular in-store inventory enables restaurants to maintain visibility of inventory levels with up to 98 percent accuracy. At the same time, early warnings about expired products can also be issued, and restaurants can target daily or weekly inventory counts, which maximizes the utilization of all items and limits orders to only those needed, minimizing waste.
RFID makes traffic more efficient At present, China's high-speed companies are developing very fast. The prerequisite for regional economic development is to have convenient traffic conditions. However, for a long time, there have been some problems in expressway toll collection. The queue of vehicles at the toll gate to pay the toll causes congestion, and a few illegal Toll collectors embezzled tolls, resulting in loss of financial revenue, etc.
At present, the ETC electronic non-stop toll collection system has been fully rolled out in China to ensure the smooth operation of the entire road network. The short-range communication of the ETC lane is realized through the vehicle-mounted RFID tag installed on the windshield of the vehicle and the RFID reader/writer on the ETC lane of the toll station. Through RFID technology, when vehicles pass through highways or bridge toll booths, the railings are automatically released, and ETC vehicles do not need to stop and pay, and the fees are directly settled through the bank's background. At the parking level, RFID technology can be used in fixed-point parking application scenarios such as office buildings or residential areas. Through RFID technology, the RFID parking card carried on the vehicle and the RFID identifier work together to release the vehicle directly, effectively improving the problem of low traffic efficiency caused by card swiping in traditional parking lots.
RFID makes anti-counterfeiting traceability easier
The problem of counterfeiting is a headache all over the world.
The RFID traceability system is a set of using RFID identification to collect target products, record product raw material information, map RFID electronic tags on the packaging during the product production process, and then process and load electronic tags for product raw materials, manufacturing, sales and other information. , save the information data in the database, so as to realize the system tool for traceability and anti-counterfeiting of the whole product life cycle.
The application of RFID technology in the field of anti-counterfeiting has its own technical advantages, and it has the advantages of low cost and difficult forgery. 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.
In addition, the application of RFID technology in retail, manufacturing, book management, smart city, national defense and military, public safety and other fields is becoming more and more common.
at last
In the era of the Internet of Everything, RFID radio frequency identification technology enables each item to have its own "ID card ID", which can be widely used in item identification and tracking scenarios. With the development of technology, the price of RFID tag products will become lower and lower. It is believed that in the near future, RFID technology will be applied in more industry scenarios.
