Radio frequency identification (RFID) is one of the buzzwords receiving a lot of coverage in the IT world lately. An RFID system is an identification system that uses radio waves to retrieve data from a device called a tag or a transponder. RFID is all around us in our daily lives—in the supermarkets, libraries, bookstores, and so on. RFID provides a quick and efficient way to collect information, such as stocktaking in a warehouse or tracking of the whereabouts of items.
