RFID or Radio Frequency Identification is a
technology that incorporates the use of
electromagnetic or electrostatic coupling in the
radio frequency (RF) portion of the electromagnetic
spectrum to uniquely identify an object, animal or
person. RFID is increasingly used in industry as an
alternative to the barcode. The advantage of
RFID is that it does not require direct contact or
line-of-sight scanning.
RFID is divided into 2 types of technology, namely
passive and active. With Active RFID, read distances
of up to 30m and more can be achieved. The tag is
more expensive than Passive RFID technology and as a
result is generally used on high value items that
require constant monitoring or man tracking. Passive RFID, on the other hand, is a far more popular,
cost-effective technology. Within this technology, different frequencies
exist which enable one to provide solutions based on specific
requirements. RFID solutions are designed on a case to case basis, using
existing product building blocks available from a solutions provider.

based solutions to industry. Reutech Solutions has many successful RFID
