RFID tags

Wireless inventory trackers

RFID tags are small electronic devices that use radio waves to transmit identifying information to a reader.

They contain a microchip and antenna, enabling tracking of inventory, packages, pets, or access cards.

Passive tags draw power from the reader's signal; active tags have their own battery.

The warehouse uses RFID tags to track shipments.
