Applications for Active RFID and Passive RFID Technology ...
No comments
RFID technology is divided into three categories - Passive, Semi-passive (also called battery assisted passive or BAP) and Active - based on how the tags obtain power and how they use it to communicate with the interrogator. More technical details regarding differences between these three categories are discussed on our Explore Portal .
What are the technical differences?
The passive...

Comparison of NFC & Barcode to RFID Inventory Tracking ...
This is a second part of Comparison of RFID, NFC and Barcode for Inventory Tracking. You can review the first part related to RFID here .
NFC Technology (Near Field Communication)
NFC Technology lays under the umbrella of RFID technology. While the RFID technology that we discussed above for inventory tracking uses the UHF frequency (860 - 960 MHz), the NFC utilizes HF (13.56 MHz) and specific...
Active RFID versus passive RFID | RFID4U
Requires presence of interrogator to work
Limited amount data storage
Require higher power interrogators
Low read range (few inches to 20 feet)
Note: A low read range might be considered an advantage or a disadvantage, depending on a tag's application. When a tag is used for credit card or for access control card, a low read range is an advantage, because you do not want somebody to be able to...

RFID Printers & Smart Labels
Every RFID implementation needs peripheral devices such as RFID-enabled printers, RFID-enabled automated label applicators (also known as print and apply devices), as well as feedback components such as light stacks, horns, LED lights or LCD displays, and triggering devices such as light break sensors. These...
How to pick the right RFID tag for uniform and laundry ...
As we mentioned earlier RFID has been used for laundry tracking for a long time. Main challenges were:
Attachment of tags
Read range
Memory
All these aspects have massively improved from the first time RFID tags were used for laundry years ago. There are several good options when looking for an RFID tag to track your uniforms or laundry. Interestingly RFID tags for uniform and laundry tracking...

Firmware upgrade capability
Firmware upgrades on the interrogator are performed to enhance performance, support new features, or resolve issues with the existing platform. They are usually downloaded from the manufacturer's site and can be deployed to the interrogators in a variety of methods. Most common methods are a Pull method, where the new firmware...
