AUTO-ID LABS What is RFID?
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an automatic identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or transponders.
An RFID tag consists of……
An Antenna, and
An Integrated Circuit

AUTO-ID LABS An RFID Tag Antenna
Enables the chip to receive and respond to radio-frequency queries from an RFID transceiver.

AUTO-ID LABS Host CPU
Application Do something with the tag information Potential to generate massive amounts of
data Once installed it costs virtually NOTHING
to read a tag! Real time data => real time decisions 0HIO (Zero Human Involvement

AUTO-ID LABS Wine Industry SurveyFinal Year 2007 Project
Survey wine industry on possible benefits of RFID enabled ZORK 19 Questions Benefits
Authentication Inventory Supply Chain Visibility Theft Reduction Security of Supply Chain History of individual bottle ePedigree Product Information Tamper evidence Rebate systems based on previous sales performance Cross Promotional Opportunities Verification of Organically Grown Produce Variable pricing Impending use by dates
Developed an application to demonstrate the benefits
