RFID chips
Scannable inventory trackers
RFID chips are small electronic devices that use radio waves to transmit identifying information.
They contain a microchip and antenna, allowing them to be read wirelessly by scanners.
RFID chips appear in credit cards, pet identification implants, inventory tags, and access badges.
Unlike barcodes, they don't require line-of-sight scanning: The warehouse tracks every pallet with RFID chips.
