People 7


One form of data transference is Radio-frequency identification also known as RFID. It is a method that can basically be described as a electronic barcode. able to withstand the harshest of environments it was able to track products and items that could be used in places such as dig sites and industrial places. This works in two parts the first is known as a integrated circuit . This stores and processes information and the seconds is just a antenna which transmit’s the signal.
Besides barcodes RFID tags can do things that barcodes cannot such read book covers and can read things whilst moving. This was supposed to improve customer and staff productivity and has done so tremendously in shops all over the country such as ASDA.
It was originally made for the soviet union as a espionage tool however its design even though made a efficient device for transmitting radio waves it could identify things. However the technology it provided was used to identify Plaines in world war two known as the IFF transponder but was later remade by Charles Walton which has since been used in shops and other places to locate objects.
