This white paper takes an in-depth look at how RFID technology works, providing examples of current applications while also addressing the controversy surrounding it. RFID has recently gotten a lot of coverage because early adopters like Target and Wal-Mart are asking their vendors to incorporate RFID tags in the products they're supplying.

RFID is simple in concept but becomes complex in the implementation details for these types of systems. “RFID Demystified” comprehensively breaks out the different terms and applications, and provides real-world examples of how the technologies can benefit small to medium manufacturers and distributors.

Pragmatyxs' white paper is intended as a tool for individuals responsible for supply chain and logistics, operations, inventory management, quality assurance, and information technology, as they make decisions about current systems and processes.

“RFID Demystified” also compares the current Automated Identification and Data Collection (AIDC) systems that use bar coding with RFID and illustrates how the two can effectively complement one another.
