Up & Coming Technology
I found some more interesting items. RFID technology can be used in so many ways. So far I’ve seem with animals, inventory, medicine and even new born babies at hospitals. This technology is incredible. It is multi-dimensional and has different categories of RFID to fit individual purposes. The most recent find I had was at the MIT Research Lab. I also found this so interesting since my sister’s friend from high school attended there, and visiting the campus and the area was beautiful, I recommend anyone visit the Boston area, even in the cold winter. Anyways, MIT Research lab is using RIFD tags for paper documents. Before the use of RFID numerous files were misplaced or lost on occasion. Now MIT is embedding an RFID EPC Gen 2 Tag on files so it can keep track of all items within each folder. I really can’t wait to see who else will start using RFID.
I know this is become a blog about variosu articles, but while researching for a paper, I found out that Nine West is implementing RFID technology for various store locations. It also talks about how Wal-mart and other stores have already been using it. So it’s an interesting article on the retail front.
