Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)

I stumbled about this term last night as I was blog surfing and was redirected to the site that discusses more about it. But since I was already sleepy, so I was not able to concentrate with what I was reading. This morning, after my female employer told me that I'm already off from work coz she's just staying home, I went down here in my apartment and started reading about RFID once again. And the term is clearer to me now,:) RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification and is an automatic identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or RFID transponders.

Moreover, An RFID tag is an object that can be incorporated into a product, animal, or person for identification purposes using radiowaves. Some tags can be read from several meters away and beyond the line of sight of the reader.Woww this is really cool! I'm so glad that I stumbled into the term and I learned something new today. Thanks to the benefits of surfing and technology.:) Anyways, back to the topic, Most RFID tags contain 2 parts. One is an integrated circuit for storing and processing information, modulating and demodulating a (RF) signal, and other specialized functions. The second one is an antenna for receiving and transmitting the signal.

If you want to know more about RFID, you can always Google the term for more results or visit Elatec, a site that specializes in RFID , electronic components, cards and services and security solutions. Elatec develops RFID readers as modules, OEM boards, PC cards and as complete devices in housing.
