What is an RFID reader and how does it work?
An RFID reader is a device used to identify and collect data from RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags or cards. It functions like a computer that transmits a signal to an antenna and then receives data from the scanned RFID tags (RFID chips), which it subsequently sends to a server or cloud for analysis. The choice of reader depends on the specific application, environment, and the type of RFID tags used. Readers differ in performance, the number of antenna ports, and supported protocols.
Wide application of RFID systems
RFID readers bring significant benefits and improvements in process tracking and security:
- Warehousing and logistics: Fast and accurate identification of incoming/outgoing goods, increasing inventory efficiency and reducing errors. Also used for tracking shipment movements and improving delivery transparency.
- Industry and IoT: Efficient tracking and management of equipment movement.
- Security systems: Authorization and monitoring of entry and exit of individuals in specific areas.
